The C. Harry Bush Memorial Scholarship

The C. Harry Bush Memorial Scholarship was established in 2012 to honor the memory of C. Harry Bush (1925-2012) who taught US History and coached football at Ridge High School for 23 years from 1965 to 1988. 

The Scholarship is awarded annually to a Ridge High School football player who exhibits leadership, character, and academic achievement. As a coach and a teacher, effort and integrity meant more to Harry Bush than natural talent or physical prowess. He was interested in teaching his players to be not only the best athletes they could be, but true citizens of the football team, the school and their larger community - and this reward reflects that priority.
