About this scholarship

Bob Stevens was a dedicated teacher at Highland Park High School for many years, where he served as the adviser to the Highland Fling, the student newspaper. He was one of the founding members of GSSPA, and served as the first president of the organization. After his death, GSSPA started the Bob Stevens Memorial Scholarship to honor his memory to help an aspiring journalist who is a student of a GSSPA member. Applicants must be a graduating high school senior. They must have participated in high school journalism for at least two years. The applicant's advisor must be a member of GSSPA. Samples of the applicant's work should be carefully selected. Applicants must provide the judges with a good cross-section of their best work rather than everything they ever produced. Applicants must also submit three or four letters of recommendation from their adviser, other teachers who know their leadership and journalistic abilities, and practitioners with whom they have worked. A letter from the principal is desirable, but not absolutely necessary. Please visit the scholarship's website or contact the New Jersey Press Foundation for more information.
