🎓✨ Congratulations to our scholarship recipient, Grace Jones!
This fall, Grace will attend Eastern Michigan University, where she plans to pursue a double major in Psychology and Criminology before continuing on to earn her Doctorate in Psychology. Driven by curiosity, compassion, and a deep desire to help others, Grace is committed to making a meaningful difference in the lives of those around her.
During her high school career, Grace was involved in an impressive range of academic, athletic, and extracurricular activities, including Math Team, Scholastic Bowl, Speech Team, CAT Crew, Tri-M, Band, Color Guard, Spanish Club, Soccer, Golf, Sideline Cheer, and more. She also served as a captain for her golf team and volunteered as an assistant coach for the Bobcats Junior Football Cheerleaders. Her accomplishments include numerous speech and math awards, ICE Honor Band recognition, PALS membership at the Cebrin Goodman Teen Institute, and earning High or Superior Honors throughout all four years of high school.
One quote from her application especially stood out:
"I want to hear what people think. I want to know who they turn to when they feel as though no one will listen. I want to be the person that’s able to lift others up, giving them someone who cares about them, especially if no one else is supporting them."
Grace, your empathy, leadership, and dedication to helping others are truly inspiring. Congratulations on this achievement! We can't wait to see the incredible impact you'll make in the future!
