DCT Student Merchant Honored By Town, Wins Scholarship

Northview High School student Cheyenne Merchant was presented a scholarship and a proclamation in her honor during Monday night’s meeting of the Century Town Council.

Through the Northview Diversified Career Technology (DCT) program, Merchant spent a portion of her school day working at the Century Town Hall for high school credit.

The proclamation recognized Merchant for “her time of service as a positive example in our community” and for her “diligence and eagerness to learn…while continuing to meet the rigors of her academic studies”.

McCall surprised Merchant with the announcement that she was the winner of the $500 Twin City Volunteers Scholarship for 2016. The group is a service club similar to Rotary that works for the betterment of Flomaton and Century.

Merchant and her teacher, Brandy White, presented the town with a Certificate of Appreciation for supporting the Northview DCT program.
