Tucson Scottish Rite




The Scottish Rite of Freemasonry of the Southern Jurisdiction of the United States believes in making investmests in our future leaders. DeMolay, Jobs Daughter, and Rainbow [Girls] have the young men and women in their membership who possess all the right traits and strong character to become good and honorable and honest national leaders. That is why they have partnered with the following groups to be able to offering these scholarship opportunites to the sons and daughters, grandsons and granddaughters, and nieces and nephews of our fellow Masons.

Public School Administration Scholarship
The Supreme Council, 33°, Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry, Southern Jurisdiction, makes available each year two scholarships for individuals who have completed master’s degrees in some phase of education, to assist in attaining a doctoral degree in Public School Administration. The intent of the scholarships is to provide assistance to professional educators who have demonstrated competence in their fields, particularly in the field of administration, and who are unable to continue with graduate studies because of financial burdens imposed by growing families or other factors involved in raising a family. There should be evidence presented that without the financial assistance provided by the scholarship, the individual would not pursue further graduate studies.Today, there are 170 RiteCare clinics, centers, and special programs operating or planned for children and therapists located throughout the United States. Each facility is staffed by speech-language pathologists or other trained personnel. Through the support of Scottish Rite members, these clinics, centers, and programs continue to increase. The value of this philanthropy has long been apparent. Tens of thousands of youngsters across the United States have been helped significantly. With the good work of dedicated clinicians and parents, the Scottish Rite has achieved successes that could only be imagined a few years back. Children who might have remained educationally handicapped for a lifetime can now talk, read, and lead useful lives.
