Bluejacket Memorial Scholarship
The Bluejacket Scholarship was established by Donald and Estelle Bluejacket and is administered by the Claremore Public Schools Foundation. It was the Bluejacket’s wish to give back to Claremore students in a meaningful and lasting way. Having no children of their own, they arranged to leave a lasting gift to Claremore students.
In 2005, their estate was given to the Claremore Public Schools Foundation to be invested for future generations of Claremore students. In 2007, Sam and Hazel Lessley added to the Bluejacket Scholarship endowment with a substantial contribution. The Bluejackets directed the Claremore Public Schools Foundation that scholarships be awarded to students “with proven records of academic achievement.” To honor their wishes and legacy, academic achievement is the primary consideration for this scholarship.

RCB Bank Scholarship
RCB Bank Scholarship is awarded to a graduating senior from Claremore High School pursuing an education at an Oklahoma four-year college or university and is based on academic achievement, financial need, and demonstrated community service.
The scholarship is funded as a token of RCB’s appreciation for the extraordinary efforts students endure to better themselves while also having a positive influence on others. RCB Bank is deeply rooted in its commitment to Claremore – proudly serving the community since 1936.
Smith Family Scholarship
The Smith Family Scholarship was established in 2022 by Mr. and Mrs. Gerald Smith. Eight Claremore High School Seniors were awarded a one year scholarship of $5,000 for the Fall Semester and an additional $5,000 for the Spring Semester while pursuing degrees in Music and Engineering.
Mr. & Mrs. Smith are passionate about both music and engineering and we are so thankful for this investment into Claremore students!
