Museum District Association Scholarships
The Museum District Association is committed to supporting graduates of Thomas Jefferson High School that seek post-secondary education. In 2018 a scholarship fund was established that will allow the MDA to present an annual scholarship to two or more graduates that have maintained at least a 3.0 GPA and have no more than 10 absences during each year of attendance at TJHS. The Thomas Jefferson High School Post-Secondary Scholarship is supported annually by the MDA Mother's Day House & Garden Tour and contributions made by residents and businesses.
For more information, please contact MDAschools@museumdistrict.org. Thank you for your interest and support.
*The MDA is a non-profit so contributions are tax exempt. A small service fee is deducted during the processing through our website.
2023 Recipients
Congratulations to graduating Thomas Jefferson High School seniors Jancy Lobo and Isiah Mejia, the Museum District Association’s 2023 scholarship recipients! Both students had exceptional recommendations, GPAs over 4.0, demonstrated leadership in their school and participated in community service projects through TJ’s Key Club, in addition to other extracurriculars.

“My experience [as a Latinos Unidos Club parent group translator] has affected me because by being a translator, I serve as a bridge between two cultures. It allows me to help parents become more engaged in their children’s lives and in the community.”

Media Arts and Design, Communications
“The Key Club and the experiences of community service have greatly opened my eyes and have enabled me to see why helping the community around me is so important.”
