Awesome.
We greatly appreciate former Educator, Elizabeth Rainey, THS Class of 1956, for her donation to establish a new scholarship - the ELIZABETH RAINEY ENGLISH SCHOLARSHIP - beginning with the 2026 scholarship season. Many of you enjoyed Mrs. Rainey as your English teacher, and this new scholarship is a wonderful counterpart to the CARRELL I. RAINEY SCIENCE AWARD! Thank you, Mrs. Rainey, for your many years of service to our students as a teacher and through the scholarships.
The THS Honors English faculty is to choose each year’s recipient with the following criteria in mind:
A. The award shall be made to a Titusville High School Senior.
B. Has taken all of the honors/advanced placement English classes offered at THS.
C. Has earned a grade of A in all of those Honors English classes and is near the top of class with high GPA.
D. Must show superior ability in speaking, writing, and reading the English language and demonstrate that ability often.
E. Must have strong character and a good reputation with no hint of trouble (cheating) of any kind in school or elsewhere.
F. Plans to attend a 4-year college or university with a major in English or some form of writing and communications.
G. Even though excellent speaking and writing is important in all careers, be planning a career leaning more towards the liberal arts than the sciences.
H. Be involved in a variety of activities in the school and community.
