Study and Dinner Both Secured! Cheongsong-gun Talent Development Scholarship Association Supports High School Students' Dinner Expenses

Contributing to the Realization of Truly Free Education

The Cheongsong County Talent Development Scholarship Foundation in North Gyeongsang Province has confirmed a dinner support program for high school students to coincide with the new school term. The initiative aims to reduce the educational expenses burden on parents and increase participation in evening self-study sessions, thereby contributing to academic improvement.

This program was finalized last November after a meeting with representatives from five local high schools, followed by a resolution by the board of directors of the Cheongsong County Talent Development Scholarship Foundation.

The beneficiaries are about 100 students from three local high schools?Cheongsong High School, Cheongsong Girls' High School, and Gyeongbuk Golf Management High School?who use the dormitory or participate in evening self-study sessions. An annual budget of approximately 64 million KRW will be allocated for this program.

Jinbo High School (Jinbo Scholarship Fund) and Hyeonse High School (School Integration Fund) already support dinner costs with their own funds, so with this new program, all high school students in Cheongsong County will now benefit from free dinner support.

Applications for dinner support will be submitted collectively by each school to the Cheongsong County Talent Development Scholarship Foundation, reducing the inconvenience for parents who would otherwise have to apply individually.

Chairman Yoon Kyunghee (County Governor) stated, "Currently, free school meals for high schools are limited to lunch during the semester under the School Meals Act, but through this support, we expect to ease the financial burden on parents and contribute to the realization of truly free education."
