NEF Scholarships
Ted Clancy Memorial Scholarship
The purpose of the scholarship is to allow graduates of MHS to pursue post secondary education, whether it be in a community college, a university or a certified vocational school. The application is available on this website or in the offices of Mountainside High School. One scholarship is available per year, in the amount of $2,000.00. Funds for the scholarship will be paid directly to the applicant's chosen institution upon their acceptance.
The NEF/5A Community Service Award
The Trujillo family began their journey with us in 2012 when their eldest child entered kindergarten. They believe strongly in education, community, and service. To that end they have partnered with the NEF to create an award for a high school graduate who has shown a commitment to service, whether it be at school or the community at large, and have strong leadership qualities. Application may be found here.
The Chirumbolo Athletic Scholarship
Sponsored by Mark Chirumbolo
Cole Chirumbolo is certainly a Nadaburg success story! Cole joined our school family in the third grade at Nadaburg Elementary School, and continued on to Mountainside High School. He graduated in May of 2025 and will be attending Lake Forest College on a full ride scholarship. His family is proud to sponsor a scholarship in his name to inspire other young athletes. Application may be found here.
Opportunity Grant
A donor who wishes to remain anonymous funds a $1000.00 high school scholarship each year. Students submit an application via their principal, who approves the application and passes it along to the NEF. These students are often students who were contenders for the Ted Clancy Scholarship, but did not quite meet those criteria. Application may be found here.
