Club awards two $500 Scholarships

Scholarships were awarded to two 2010 graduates from each of the high schools in San Marcos: Janelle Hiroshige from San Marcos High School and Jessica Curnow from Mission Hills High School. Both winners were selected because of outstanding academic achievement, volunteerism and participation in organizations and activities. Jessica Curnow spoke to the club in June regarding her education plans. Janelle Hiroshige informed the Club at the July meeting that she plans to attend Point Loma Nazarine University in the fall. It is hoped that the recipients will follow their ambitions to make a difference in our country. For the coming academic year the club has agreed to award an additional scholarship to the most worthy student from Twin Oaks High School in San Marcos.
