Area graduating seniors are now able to apply for the annual KCII business and broadcasting scholarship. Each year KCII awards two $250 scholarships for a graduating senior who is going to pursue a degree in business or broadcasting at a two year college or four year university. General manager Joe Nichols shares it’s important to help kids with their education and help them pursue something they’re passionate about. Scholarship applications can be found in your school’s guidance counselor’s office or at KCII.

Last year, Whitney Horras of Pekin Community Schools and Macy Marek of Washington High School received the scholarships.
