The Denny Sullivan Scholarship was established to honor Denny Sullivan, long time and very successful Cross Country and Track and Field coach at Grant High School. The athletes under his guidance were required to remain academically eligible, to remain on course to be eligible for entrance to an institution of higher learning, to be competitive in Cross Country / Track and Field, and to establish goals and accomplish those goals while having their performance be proof of their dedication and hard work.
The requirements for receiving the Denny Sullivan Scholarship include:
Top Male / Female PIL Graduating SeniorOutstanding Academic Achievement, 3.0 minimumOutstanding Cross Country / Track and Field AchievementFinancial Assistance NeedCommunity / School Volunteer Involvement

The nominees from each school will be determined by the A.D.’s, the Track Coaches, and the Counseling Staff. The winners will be determined by an independent committee.
