Alumni Scholarship Awards $10,000 to six KHS 2021 Grads

Last month, the Kendrick Alumni Scholarship Fund awarded $10,000 to six KHS Class of 2021 graduates. In 2020, the first year of the Scholarship, $7,000 was awarded to three 2020 seniors.

Receiving scholarships, left to right, were Aimee Pugh, Jocelyn White, Corey Thompkins, Trinity Harris and Ta'nijah Owens. Not pictured is Jakaria Grayson.

As part of their application process, these students met with the Scholarship Committee, KHS principal Dr. James, Guidance Director Ms. Johnson and teacher Mrs. Dunlap. All six of these students shared about their education, their lives and their goals; they were amazing!!

More information about how individuals and groups can help with fund-raising for next year's scholarships will be coming soon.

First Kendrick Alumni Scholarships Awarded

Kendrick High School’s Alumni Scholarship Committee announces the first recipients of the Kendrick Alumni Scholarship. Members of the KHS Class of 2020 who were selected to receive Alumni Scholarships and the schools which they will attend are:

Ms. Quinnette Grayson - Columbus State University
Ms. Samerica Thornton - Columbus Technical College
Ms. Krystal Turner - Columbus Technical College

These are the inaugural scholarships granted by the Kendrick High Alumni Scholarship program. This program was established by the School’s first graduating class, the Class of 1970, in celebration of the 50th anniversary of their graduation on June 5, 1970. The Committee plans to continue the Kendrick Alumni Scholarship endeavor, extending involvement to all years’ alumni.

Congratulations to our 2020 graduates!
