WAY TO GO, Chelsea!!! mamma and daddy are sooooo proud!
Congratulations Katie, we are so proud of you.
Congratulations Joseph and Jacob!!!!
Great job Chelsea Parham! We are so proud of you!!! You, too, Melissa Jayne Moretz!
Congratulations to all!!! That is awesome you get all that great stuff to help further your education (hopefully in the arts).
I won this award in 1991 and all I got was a handshake haha! I still have my medal though.
Welcome to the club!
Congrats to the winners! Can anyone explain what a book scholarship entails? William is there any way to find out how these scholarships are competed for or awarded? I see each school was awarded 10 scholarships but each have diferent numbers won in very different categories for each. For example every one of these schools has a great orchestra program but only one school included that category. Then you have a school giving an award in debate. Debate is not a creative art, and certainly any kid that was a member of the state championship debate team has a chance at appropriate scholarships that they don’t have to take them away from the arts.
