The Abby Sobrato LCPA Alumni Scholarship

The Abby Sobrato Scholarship for LCPA Alumni was established by John Matthew Sobrato in memory of his mother, who was a teacher herself and inspired him to go into teaching while always pushing for equal opportunity for everyone. This scholarship seeks to honor those values and provide expanded opportunities for students who graduated from the Latino College Prep Academy (LCPA) in San José, California, through significant scholarship support that will facilitate college access and success. The scholarship is designed for graduates of the Latino College Preparatory Academy in San José who intend to continue their post-secondary studies and have demonstrated financial need. The selection committee looks for students who demonstrate academic potential, involvement in community or school activities, and contributed to their campus in a meaningful way. Awards are granted up to $5,000 to support undergraduate or graduate students enrolled or planning to enroll in two-year colleges, four-year colleges, or vocational schools.
