All students receiving scholarship funds must have a diagnosis of
dyslexia from the JPW Learning Center or their current school. This must be
made available to the staff of the JPW Learning Center upon entering the
scholarship program. If a student wishes to enter the summer program but needs
testing the cost for each test is $750.00, payable at the time of the test.
The JAMES PHILLIPS WILLIAMS MEMORIAL FOUNDATION is funded in part by grants
from various agencies. The Foundation is required to provide data to those
agencies on a regular basis on how these services are being rendered and to
whom. Although the following questions are optional, we would appreciate
your assistance with this information so that we can be as accurate as possible
with our reports. This information will be handled with the strictest confidence
and will be used for data gathering purposes only.
If you are chosen to receive Scholarship funding, you will be required to make
sure the student arrives on time for each class, if not attending the class, the
