Overview
The River Forest High School Scholarship refers to the collective local scholarships available to students attending Oak Park and River Forest High School (OPRFHS). These are funded by local donors, foundations, and alumni groups to support the higher education of OPRFHS graduates. Since 1924, the Oak Park and River Forest High School Scholarship Foundation has awarded college scholarships to hundreds of OPRFHS graduates who have demonstrated academic excellence, initiative, leadership, and financial need. In recent years, the foundation has increased the number of scholarships that are given each spring, enabled in large part by the generosity of parents, retirees, alumni, and friends of the high school.
