Students awarded for technical success
April 27, 2009 · Updated 7:14 PM
Two career-and-technical education students from Northshore have been awarded 2009 Washington Award for Vocational Excellence (WAVE) scholarship grants. Morgan Clauson, Woodinville High health-sciences student, and AprilJoy Santos, Inglemoor High business/marketing student, will receive up to two years of free tuition at a Washington public or private college or vocational school of their choice.
This year’s 146 winners were selected from applications reviewed by a committee representing business, labor, education and government, along with interested citizens. Two high-school students, and one from a community or technical college, were selected from each of the state’s 49 legislative districts.
Established in 1984, the WAVE awards pay undergraduate educational tuition for two years (six quarters or four semesters) at an accredited public or private college or university or licensed private vocational school. Students are reimbursed for their actual tuition costs — capped at $6,720 per year.
