Are you a superintendent or an aspiring superintendent? Are you pursuing graduate study to become the
best superintendent you can be? Do you know there are scholarships available through IASA to help offset
the costs of your coursework? Established in 1993 in memory of Dr. James V. Moon, a former superintendent
at Morton High School District, the James V. and Dorothy B. Moon Scholarship program is committed to im-
proving the education and qualifications of school administrators. Since its inception, 67 scholarships totaling
nearly $143,000 have been awarded to current or aspiring superintendents.
Practicing school administrators in Illinois qualify if they are college graduates pursuing an advanced de-
gree in educational administration at an accredited college or university. Several scholarships ($2,500 mini-
mum each) are awarded each year and are paid directly to the college or university to cover tuition, fees and/
or textbook expenses.
