Argosy Collegiate Charter School announces names of seniors and alumni who received scholarships and grants in 2025 – Fall River Reporter Also available in Português / Español / ខ្មែរ (Cambodian) Fall River, MA – Argosy Collegiate Charter School is proud to announce that 12 of its seniors have been awarded state scholarships based on MCAS performance and 26 grants have been awarded to alumni in 2025, supporting postsecondary education and career advancement.
Argosy Collegiate Charter School, a public charter school in Fall River, founded in 2014, serves scholars in grades 6–12 through a wall-to-wall Early College program designed to prepare every scholar for college, career, and life. In 2023, the Argosy Collegiate Foundation established the Alumni Advancement Fund to support alumni pursuing postsecondary degrees and career/technical certifications by reducing financial barriers.
To date, $79,000 in grants has been awarded to help alumni continue their education and advance their career readiness. In 2025 alone, $39,000 was distributed through 26 grants to alumni from the Classes of 2021 through 2025. The Alumni Advancement Fund is sustained through proceeds and sponsorships from Argosy’s Annual Art Auction & Raffle, held each spring to showcase scholar artwork.
We extend our gratitude to the 2025 sponsors: Arbella Insurance, BankFive, BayCoast Bank, Bristol County Savings Bank, Paul C. Burke, Central Source, Arthur Frank, HRKnowledge, Vantage in Philanthropy, L&P Graphics, R. P.
Valois & Co. , and Jani-King. We also thank the Rodgers Family Foundation and BayCoast Bank for their direct grant support of the Fund.
Minimizing the financial burden of college and career readiness remains a core focus of Argosy Collegiate. 100% of Argosy’s scholars take college courses — earning free college credits while in high school—and beginning in 2026, seniors will earn an associate degree before high school graduation.

The change targets outcome-payment grants, milestone-based workforce training contracts, charter school federal pass-throughs, and the entire universe of simplified award programs that have allowed small grantees to operate without month-by-month cost accounting infrastructure. Comments close July 13; proposed effective date October 1. Grantees who do not begin building cost-allocation systems now will not be able to bid on FY27 NOFOs.
