Established in 2002 with gifts from Adam Carroll's family and friends, this scholarship honors the memory of a young man known for his love of people, his zest for life, and his love of sports. An honor graduate of Grand Saline High School, Adam was a gifted baseball player, a handsome guy with an infectious smile, and a young man who had big dreams for his life.
One of Adam’s favorite sayings was “Always remember who you are, where you come from, and what you represent.” Adam Carroll knew who he was, he knew where he came from, both geographically and spiritually, and he knew he represented his family, his school, and his Lord. Sadly, Adam left us way too soon due to injuries in an auto accident in 2002.
Through the generosity of family and friends, Adam continues to “give back” by helping other GSHS students to further their education through The Adam Carroll Memorial Scholarship, which is awarded to a graduating senior of Grand Saline High School who has participated in high school athletics or cheerleading.
Scholarship recipients are chosen based on their grades and participation in high school athletics, ensuring the Adam Carroll Scholarship will continue to be a special honor for the recipient.

Donors will receive an acknowledgment for their gift by mail, which can be used for tax purposes.
