THOUSAND ISLANDS SECONDARY SCHOOL

Thousand Islands Secondary School is grateful for the many businesses, service groups, and individuals who make available financial awards and bursaries for our graduates.

This page provides links to the application forms for the various Commencement awards and bursaries.

Commencement awards and bursaries at TISS fall under three categories:

1. Awards determined by the TISS Commencement Awards Committee. Students need to fill in one application form (the “General Application Form”) to be considered for any of the approximately 50 awards that fall under this category chosen by TISS staff.

    

2. TISS awards chosen by the donor that require a separate application for each. Students will be competing against other TISS students for these awards. The donor will choose the recipient.

    

3. Regional awards chosen by the donor that require a separate application for each. Students will be competing against students from other local high schools in the Leeds-Grenville area for these awards. The donor will choose the recipient.

Unless otherwise stated, all application forms are to be submitted via email to Mr. Cross at james.cross@ucdsb.on.ca or in person at the TISS Main Office on or before Thursday, April 22. Mr. Cross will submit your application packages to the donors on your behalf.
