Like cash though? Grants and scholarships for grads is one thing but cash for best grade in class just sounds like made-up bullshit

The "minor prizes" like the one I got were checks to be cashed in, the perfect score girl prize was more like a grant though.

And yeah I too was surprised and while I was happy at the time (which kid wouldn't, right), it does feel weird now lol. My guess is that they fucked up their budget for the year and needed to burn the money for tax reasons?

They never said it was given as cash, the even explicitly say the guy brought it in class as cash, suggesting it wasn't probably cash before

I get that, I meant more like most grants, bursaries and scholarships can't be cashed out, they can only be spent on tuition.
