The Kingsland Manor participates in the Senior Scholastic Awards Program each spring, awarding a scholarship to a Nutley High School student who will be attending college after graduation. The spring of 2021 will be the third year the Kingsland Manor will be presenting a scholarship to a deserving Nutley student interested in community service and Nutley history.

Kingsland Manor’s Dorothy Greengrove Memorial Scholarship is given in memory of Dorothy Greengrove, a lifelong member of Nutley who dedicated over 46 years working to restore and maintain Nutley's historic homestead. Known as a guardian of Nutley's history, Dorothy served as a president of the Manor and was actively involved in numerous community activities serving Nutley.

Starting in 2026, we will no longer require an essay as part of the scholarship application. Students must instead have volunteered at Kingsland Manor in some capacity (giving tours, gardening, helping with special events, research/documentation, etc.) prior to applying.
