Student Advisor to the Board of Education

Each year, the Rolla High School student body elects a sophomore or junior to serve as the student advisor to the Board of Education for a one-year term. This is a significant role, as the student advisor acts as a liaison between Rolla Public Schools students and the Board members.

Although the position is non-voting, the student advisor is expected to attend all Board of Education meetings, provide a student perspective on relevant issues, and communicate regularly with lead principals across the district to report on school activities.

If you are interested in applying for this role, please pick up an application from Ms. Mumma in the attendance office. The deadline for applications is November 1, 2024.

Scholarship Information from Dr. Kaelin

Scholarships and grants are helpful ways to fund your college education. They provide you with free money that can go towards tuition or other educational expenses.

To find and apply for scholarships, sign up for Going Merry -- it’s free! Going Merry has thousands of national, regional, and LOCAL scholarships. There are also opportunities for every grade level, from freshmen to seniors.

To sign up, click here: Sign up for Going Merry!

You can also download the Going Merry mobile app (and sign up that way) on iOS or Android.

Here are some reasons why I recommend Going Merry above other scholarship sites:

Scholarship bundles: You can apply to multiple scholarships using one application and the same essay prompt.
Vetted scholarships: The Going Merry team periodically reviews every scholarship listing, to ensure the scholarship program is still active and the information is correct.
Personal matching: Once signed up, you’ll answer a few questions to fill out a basic profile, and then get matched to scholarships that fit your background, academics, interests, etc.
Clear organization: You can shortlist favorites and get deadline reminders about them. All drafts and applications are saved, and you’ll get updates on the scholarships you’ve applied to.
Direct, auto-filled applications: You can apply to many scholarships directly on the site (with forms helpfully pre-filled).

Happy applying – and good luck winning, like these students did!
