Lake Highlands Women’s League awarded thousands of dollars in college scholarships to 28 deserving LHHS graduates at a reception Friday morning in the school auditorium. On hand to welcome the students were their parents & family members, invited favorite teachers and RISD school board members Karen Holburn and Luke Davis. The entire LHHS counseling staff also attended, along with College and Career Center Director Dr. Brenda Prine.
“This is such a wonderful event to conclude our year,” said LHWL President Kathy Adams as she congratulated the scholarship recipients and praised her hard-working team. “Raising funds to enable these students to achieve their dreams makes the efforts of our many members and loyal donors worthwhile.”
