John Morris & Jeanne Kelly
Athletic Boosters’ Scholarship
In 1994, the FCHS Athletic Booster Club introduced the John Morris Scholarship – named after a former Asst. DSA, teacher, and coach at Falls Church – to honor student athletes embodying sportsmanship, commitment, and dedication. In 2020, we expanded, naming the male scholarship after John Morris and the female scholarship after Jeanne Kelly. Jeanne Kelly served the FCHS Activities office for 17 years and retired in 2020 as the DSA. Each year, we award at least two $1,500 scholarships to support further education.
Funding for scholarships is part of FCHS’ Athletic Booster budget. Additional funding for the 2023-2024 scholarship has been provided by the JAG Grad Scholarship Trust and the Chad Kenna Memorial Golf Tournament.
Information for the 2024 scholarships will be provided in the near future.
Award
The scholarship award winners will be announced in June. Award recipients are typically announced at the Spring Sports Awards ceremony.
