Ernie Green Memorial Scholarship

Help fulfill the Ernie Green Memorial Scholarship Endowment
at Northwest Florida State College

Those who knew Ernest "Ernie" Green say that he was the consummate professional as a coach, teacher and administrator. In his 35 years of service to FWBHS, he influenced generations of students, parents and coworkers. He made everyone he knew feel special. His love for his school and community was only surpassed by that of his love for his family. Husband of longtime local educator Dr. Vivian Green and father to E.G. Green, former NFL wide receiver, Ernie was a true role model of what it means to be a husband, father and leader. His ability to challenge, encourage and empower students to be successful was the essence of his strength and character.

Maurice "Mo" Evans was one of Ernie Green's first students and athletes. Like countless others, Mo considers himself fortunate to have had Ernie Green write upon the pages of his life. To keep that legacy and impact alive, he has rallied the support of the community to establish the Ernie Green Memorial Scholarship Endowment. 

The Ernie Green Memorial Scholarship will be used for a tuition, fees and book award to a NWF State College student enrolled in a STEM-related degree program.
