Hello, Jayden !
A way that you can obtain scholarships in general is going straight to the source. Your teachers and guidance counselors pretty much have been aware of and receive information about scholarships. You can also explore the resources on line, not limiting yourself to subjects of school activities or the clubs you are in, rather what you qualify for in various categories. Also explore the college you attend while you are a student there. Some scholarships require that you are already a full time student at a college. For now, seek out the scholarships granted to high school students entering college when the time is right.
According to The Art Career Project's school rankings, the top schools for Graphic Design are : Rhode Island School of Design, Parsons School of Design, Pratt Institute, Virginia Commonwealth University, Art Center College of Design, Carnegie Mellon University School of Art, Savannah College of Art and Design, School of Visual Arts, Maryland Institute College of Art, and Minneapolis College of Art and Design.
Keep in mind that to go to these schools, you will have to consider a plan to move. Read their websites and choose which one seems to fit into your long term plan.
Best wishes to you and keep searching for scholarships. I hope you find many to apply to !

Hi Jayden,
Review local art institutions in your area is a good way to start, but if you have the opportunity to get a guide visit to those institutions will be the best way to see by first hand if the institution have suitable art classrooms and the tools to pursue an art major.
Also an important tool is to check the reviews most students give to their art professors because you can get an idea of a great art professors and choose wisely the art courses taught by them.
