Beachside students get their Bright Futures scholarship evaluations four times before graduation: 10th graders – in April, 11th graders – in April, 12th graders – in October and April! This evaluation comes directly from the FLDOE Office of Student Financial Assistance and is the only way for students to see what they still need to qualify for the Bright Futures scholarship. You can view current Bright Futures scholarship requirements directly from the FLDOE Office of Student Financial Assistance here: https://www.floridastudentfinancialaidsg.org/PDF/BFHandbookChapter1.pdf

Remember community service is NOT a graduation requirement in Florida, however earning at least 100 work or community service hours is a requirement for the Bright Futures scholarship! We recommend students earn those hours before senior year. You can find how to document and turn in hours as well as how to find opportunities on our website - https://www-bhs.stjohns.k12.fl.us/guidance/community-service/

Need a transcript? All transcripts should be ordered via Parchment - https://www-bhs.stjohns.k12.fl.us/guidance/transcript-requests/
