Bayside Realty Consultants Offers Scholarship to Dennis-Yarmouth High School Seniors

Eager to give back to the community in a new way, owner of Bayside Realty Consultants, Kim Clark established a scholarship for Dennis-Yarmouth High School seniors!

Kim Clark, Owner of Bayside Realty Consultants has collaborated with the guidance department at Dennis-Yarmouth High School to provide one graduating senior with a $500 scholarship towards their college education.

One lucky senior will impress a panel of Bayside Realty Consultants employees with their essay about what it means to grow up on the coast of Massachusetts; the benefits of living and growing up on Cape Cod. The graduating seniors have until April 1st to submit their essays to Kim for review. A recipient of the scholarship will be decided shortly thereafter. A few days before graduation a scholarship ceremony will be held to grant the students their awarded scholarships.

Being a long-term resident of the Cape, Kim was eager to give back to the community in a different way. She strongly supports education and wants to contribute to helping one senior further their education.

The Cape offers a haven that many people come to love and appreciate; Kim is interested in hearing what the class of 2013 has to say. She wanted to invoke reflection with this essay question. Most kids have not had to think about leaving the community of the Cape until this point. College is a time of growth and life exploration when many learn to appreciate of where they came from.

"I'm very happy to be able to help a local student this year and plan to continue to do so throughout the years," Kim said. The Bayside Realty Consultant's scholarship will be included yearly in Dennis-Yarmouth High School's scholarship list.
