Scholarship Application is Now Closed

We are proud to support the next generation through the Tucker Scholarship program. Any senior high school student who is a child, grandchild, or legal dependent of a current team member from Tucker, CCS, or JET, and who will be enrolling in Polk State College for the academic year beginning in August, is eligible to apply.

The selected recipient will receive a $1,600.00 scholarship for one year.

The Tucker Scholarship Committee will evaluate applications based on:
– Scholastic standing
– ACT or SAT scores
– Extracurricular Activities
– Career Goals
– Essay

Selections are made based on overall merit and worthiness of the application. If chosen as a finalist, applicants may be required to attend a pre-selection, in-person interview at the Tucker office on a date determined by the committee.

We encourage all eligible students to apply and take advantage of this opportunity to invest in their future.

Amanda Allen

Amanda Allen, a proud 2025 graduate of Lake Region High School has demonstrated dedication and drive. During her time at Lake Region, she played softball all four years and was actively involved in FFA, gaining valuable hands-on experience in agricultural fieldwork, something she truly loved. Amanda plans to pursue a career in physical therapy, with the goal of becoming a physical therapy assistant. When asked how she felt about receiving the scholarship, she said she was “extremely excited” and grateful for the opportunity to further her education and move closer to her career goals.

Her connection to Tucker runs deep- both her father and grandfather have worked in our estimating department, proudly contributing to the company’s legacy. Amanda shared, “Tucker Paving is a very family-oriented business, and if you need help with anything, they’ll always be there.” She extends her heartfelt thanks to her parents and the entire Tucker family for their unwavering support and for making this incredible opportunity possible.
