Congratulations to the SET SEG Educational Foundation 2007 Summer Leadership Camp scholarship recipients:
- Avondale High School
- Fitzgerald High School
- Hanover-Horton High School
- Houghton High School
- Parchment High School
In honor of their exemplary commitment to student education, the Foundation has awarded these five schools with a scholarship to help students develop their leadership potential. Through its first scholarship program, the Foundation awarded a total of $5,000 in funds, up to a maximum of $1,250 per school. The funding will provide financial assistance to students attending the highly acclaimed Michigan Association of Student Councils/Michigan Association of Honor Societies Summer Leadership Camp at Albion College, July 22-27, 2007.
Scholarship recipients were selected from a competitive field of applicants. The SET SEG Educational Foundation presented winning high schools with their checks during districts’ board of education meetings.
Approximately 46 students from the winning schools will participate in the leadership camp. This opportunity will enable students to interact with participants from various schools in Michigan. It will also help students gain valuable leadership skills that will aid them in their future endeavors.
