Scholarships

There are two types of RRYSA Scholarships, Academic and Hardship. If awarded a Full Academic or Hardship Scholarship then 100% of the program fee will be covered. The Partial Academic or Hardship Scholarship covers 50% (half) of the program fee, and the parent will be responsible for paying the remaining balance. The balance must be paid in full prior to being awarded the Partial Scholarship. We do currently have Scholarship funds available for Basketball!
