KT Smith Memorial Scholarship Fund

ALL PROCEEDS OF THIS EVENT GO TOWARDS  THE KT SMITH MEMORIAL SCHOLARSHIP!
When KT passed away in 2010, the loss was felt throughout the Oakton High School community. Even though she is no longer a student, the impact she had on the people she met still holds strong. The KT Smith Memorial Scholarship, which tonight’s show benefits, was established in her memory. Named after the Oakton alumnus, it will reward an Oakton Theatre, Journalism, Artist, or Creative Writing student with a $1,000 grant to be used for that student’s college education. The scholarship was designed to reflect Smith’s lively personality and multi-dimensional interests, and will serve as a living monument to the impact she had on Oakton.

2017 brought another year of talented applicants! Our judges couldn't choose between these 2 talented young men- so our Boosters voted to award them both. Hunter Carrico will be headed to JMU this the fall to double major in theater & photography. Max Torti will be attending VCU where he hopes to start an improvisation group since none exists. KT would have enjoyed you both immensely!

Our first year , 2012, was a tough one! We couldn't choose between two of our wonderfully qualified finalists. So our panel of 7 judges decided to share the prize between Allie Berube, who now attends Syracuse University with a focus on sports journalism, and Marina Fondin who is attending the School of Visual Arts in NYC.
