The Zachary Novak Memorial Music Scholarship memorializes the 1999 Highland High School graduate — an exceptional musician and man of character. The Novak family and their friends established an endowed fund upon Zachary’s passing, dedicating it to provide an annual scholarship. It is open to applications from ACS seniors aspiring to study music in college. In 2006 and 2007, the scholarship provided $2,000 in awards. Gifts to the fund are accepted at any time.
