The Dalles High School handed out a total of $288,000 in 113 individual scholarships to graduates last week at the annual Senior Scholarships Award Night.
The North Wasco County School District Scholarship Foundation gave out $143,000 of that funding and the remaining $145,000 was provided by private organizations.
Though the high school auditorium was somewhat stuffy from the day’s heat, the community still gathered to celebrate the 55 seniors receiving awards. Of those who received scholarships, 32 were awarded multiple scholarships.
Mollie Daggett and Lindsey Miles each received five scholarships and Monica De Leon won eight awards that evening, including Outstanding Senior Girl. Bill Burns was awarded Outstanding Senior Boy.
Alisha Shull-Seward was the first to win both the Rotary Service Above Self and the Rotary Griffith Family Business scholarships from The Dalles Rotary Club, totaling $6,000.
