Legacy Scholarship Fund

This scholarship fund is named in honor of Jason Shaw, a resident and pillar of the community, and the City of Frankfort, at large. Jason Shaw graduated from Frankfort High School and continued to exemplify Panther Pride throughout his life. He was known for his unwavering integrity, selflessness, and dedication to others. He coached the FHS Lady Panthers soccer team, served as South Frankfort Presbyterian Church Youth Minister, and extended many other small acts of kindness to any and everyone. This scholarship celebrates his enduring legacy by investing in future leaders who share his values.
