Big Bear Valley AAUW awards five STEM scholarships to Big Bear High School seniors

The Big Bear Valley chapter of the American Association of University Women (AAUW) has awarded five scholarships to senior girls at Big Bear High School who plan to pursue careers in science, technology, engineering, or math, according to a report in The Grizzly[1].

The 2026 recipients were recognized at a presentation ceremony, though details about the event's date and location could not be confirmed from the available information[1]. The names of the five scholarship winners, individual award amounts, and any comments from recipients or AAUW chapter leaders could not be confirmed from the source material provided.

AAUW is a national organization that has long championed educational and professional equity for women and girls. Its Big Bear Valley chapter's annual scholarship program supports local students as they head into college and university programs in fields where women remain underrepresented.
