East Senior Spirit Boosters
Booster Scholarships
-
Each year the West Seneca East Spirit Booster Club awards scholarships to graduating seniors to assist in their college endeavors. Thank you to the parents, students, faculty and coaches who have become members and those who support our fundraising activity throughout the year. Through support of the concession stand, Sabres ticket raffle, January Lottery numbers, and the Spring Booster Bash, our members/supporters make these scholarships possible.
Congratulations to all the award recipients and best wishes in your future endeavors!
