High School Scholarships
2025 Sterling Ruritan Community Service Scholarships: The Sterling Ruritan Club will award several scholarships to High School Seniors from each of the three Sterling High Schools (Dominion High School, Potomac Falls High School or Park View High School) with a Community Service Scholarship in the amount of $1,000 for their efforts in helping others.
-----------------------------
2025 Hummer Trade School Scholarships: The Hummer Trade School Scholarships are named to recognize and celebrate the Hummer Family of Loudoun County for their long-standing generational achievements in trade and farming. The Hummer Family helped establish the Sterling Ruritan in 1952 and were founding members.
Skilled trades are the backbone of our society and are lucrative, stable career opportunities. While often overlooked, The Sterling Ruritan Club recognizes that higher education in a trade can be critical for setting a firm foundation for a lifetime career. As such, this $1000 scholarship recognizes those hard working members of our community entering trades and is designed to assist them in reaching their full potential.
Those who seek a career in trades such as (but not limited to) fabrication, construction, farming, plumbing, electrical, masonry, auto repair, cosmetology, culinary arts and other trade related careers are encouraged to apply.
Any Dominion High School, Potomac Falls High School or Park View High School Senior who is interested in attending a trade school may apply for this scholarship.

Plastic bags and film packaging are important durable and lightweight protection for food and merchandise in transit. But these materials SHOULD NOT be recycled in most curbside carts or single stream programs. Thankfully, many grocers and retailers and some communities provide specific collection bins for bags and film to be recycled separately from other recyclables.

5 Preventive Health Screenings for these Conditions
Carotid Artery Disease: an ultrasound is performed to screen the carotid arteries (a pair of blood vessels in the neck that deliver blood to your brain) for buildup of fatty plaque. This buildup, called atherosclerosis, is one of the leading causes of stroke.
Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD): an Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI) test is performed using blood pressure cuffs on the arms and legs. It is important to screen for PAD because it increases the risk of coronary artery disease, heart attack, or stroke.2
Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA): an ultrasound is performed to screen the abdominal aorta for the presence of an enlargement or aneurysm. AAA can lead to a ruptured aortic artery, which is a life-threatening medical emergency.
Atrial Fibrillation (AFib): a 6-lead electrocardiogram (EKG) is performed by placing sensors on the arms and legs to screen for Atrial Fibrillation. AFib can lead to blood clots, stroke, and heart failure, and other heart-related complications.3
Why should I get screened? These tests cannot detect all risk factors for all conditions, such as and including the presence of coronary artery disease..
Hypertension (high blood pressure): a blood pressure cuff will be placed on your arm to screen for hypertension (high blood pressure). High blood pressure is a leading cause of stroke.4
