Getting a scholarship?

Question

I am going into 9th grade this fall and i want to immediately work on my scholarship and application by doing a lot of extracurriculars and community service hours. My family is not in the greatest financial state. I am a intelligent athlete and get close to straight A's. I know even if i get a job throughout high school i wont be able to pay for College. Hopefully i can save some and get grants or something. Do you have any advice that could help me?
