The Ethel W. Crawley Memorial Education Fund Scholarship directs a scholarship selection committee to award a full four-year scholarship that covers tuition, room, board, school fees, books, and other supplies.
Crawley, who died April 11, 1998, did not want finances to be a barrier for a student getting a college education when she established the scholarship.
She was a lifelong resident of Littleton, teaching music for 28 years at Littleton High School.
