Rotary Club of Florissant Awards $14,000 in Scholarships
to Local Students
In keeping with its mission of “Service above Self” during its weekly lunch meeting, the Rotary Club of Florissant awarded $14,000 in scholarships to seven North County high school seniors. The money will help support the students’ post-secondary academic careers at their chosen universities.
To be eligible to receive the scholarships, students had to complete an application, met the GPA requirements, share their school and community service involvement, and write an essay. Upon completion, the Rotary Club Scholarship Committee reviewed all application packets to determine this year’s winners. The 2018 Rotary Scholarship winners received $2,000 each, which will be sent to the college of their choice. This year’s scholarship recipients are as follows:
Theodore Laesch, Lutheran High School North
Megan Pilla, Incarnate Word Academy
Dacia Slater, McCluer North High School
Collin Fiore, Hazelwood West High School
Tasnim Keddo, Hazelwood West High School
Matthew Gantner, Trinity Catholic High School
Sklyar Cribbett, Marquette Catholic High School
The event was held on April 17 at Christian Northwest Healthcare, Building A - Community Room (lower level), 1225 Graham Road, Florissant, MO 63031.
