This year, as a result of your generosity, the Alumni Association has been able to award seven scholarships to graduating seniors. The scholarship recipients and their scholarships are:
The Gloria Shuler Rookard Memorial Scholarship Shamara Walker
The Bond Memorial Scholarship Jessica Starks
The Ensworth Memorial Scholarship Megan Gallagher
The Tom McLain Art Scholarship Hae Nim Cho
The Berry Family Memorial Scholarship Stephen Slawter
The John Holloman Memorial Scholarship Stacey Maroney
The Frank W. Meadows Memorial Scholarship Kathleen Garrett
These scholarships were awarded to the students on Friday May 19th at the senior awards assembly at East High School in front of their peers and teachers. It was a very impressive assembly and certainly brought out the best of the senior class. Congratulations to all of the scholarship winners and of course thank you Alumni.
As the Alumni Association has been chartered as a 501 C 3 or charitable organization, we have been able to facilitate Alumni gifts going to East High School or individual programs, students etc. and provide a tax write off for those gifts to their donors. This has been a win/ win situation for the kids at East High and the Alumni donors.
