Scholarships

The Ionic Lodge Charitable Foundation proudly sponsors the Malcolm E. Carrick Memorial Scholarship. Every year, ILCF selects two graduating seniors from Franklin H.S. to be that year's Malcolm E. Carrick Scholarship recipients. ILCF remains in contact with these scholarship recipients (our Malcolm E. Carrick Scholars) through their academic career. These Malcolm E. Carrick Scholars are eligible to apply for additional scholarship assistance from ILCF for up to eight semesters.
