The Toledo Public Schools Foundation has awarded $116,535 to 75 students and three educators for its 10th round of such grants since its founding in 2001.

The scholarships are to be presented this evening at Gladieux Meadows, 4480 Heatherdowns Blvd. Former TPS Superintendent Crystal Ellis is the keynote speaker.

Executive Director Susan Zurawski said most of the awards are scholarships named for donors “who decided to pass on to others the advantages that they were afforded.”
