The James & Esther Mock Memorial Scholarship was created in 2005 to honor Jim Mock, a 1949 graduate of Winchester High school. Jim was an educator for 37 years, with 36 of those years at Randolph Central in numerous roles from guidance counselor to teacher to assistant superintendent. He retired in 1994, and he took pride in education and felt that good character and integrity were the most important traits that an individual could have. He was also a proud Navy veteran, serving during the Korean War. In 2017, his wife Esther Mock passed away and her name was added to the scholarship to recognize and honor her. She always stressed the need for integrity, a good education and continued learning, even taking computer and painting classes herself later in life. This scholarship is given in recognition of both of theirs love for this community and the students of WCHS.
Awarded to a boy or girl graduate of Winchester Community High School or a boy or girl graduate of a successor consolidated school that would have graduated from WCHS that has exhibited good citizenship and good character. Grades may also be considered but are not the primary criteria. Applicants must provide one letter of reference with their CFRC Scholarship Application.
