About this scholarship
The Claudia K. Salewske Memorial Scholarship will be awarded to students from Gilroy Unified School District planning to study English, writing or education at a four-year college or university. The Claudia K. Salewske Memorial Fund Scholarship was established in 2017 by Claudia's husband, Michael Salewske, and daughter, Cassie Salewske, to honor her memory and her legacy. Mrs. Salewske cared deeply for her students, and was passionate about teaching, literature, and writing. She was not only an outstanding teacher, but she encouraged many of her students to become teachers as well. Because she touched so many lives, her family wants her memory to live on through her scholarship fund, supporting future writers and educators long into the future. Applicants must be a graduating high school senior from Gilroy High School, Christopher High School, or Mt. Madonna High School, in Gilroy, California. They must be accepted to a four-year college or university, and matriculating in the fall following graduation for a planned course of study in English, English Literature, or Creative Writing and/or planned course of study in elementary or secondary education.
