Two Dearborn County high school students receive scholarships from SRI and Nationwide partners
Summary
At the commissioners meeting SRI representatives presented two scholarships—one $1,000 award (Nationwide partnership paid in two installments) and one $500 SRI scholarship—to two students from the same high school; SRI praised community partnership and awarded students for academic and extracurricular achievements.
SRI representatives presented two scholarships to high school seniors during the commissioners meeting: a $1,000 scholarship administered with a Nationwide Retirement Solutions partnership and a $500 scholarship from SRI.
The $1,000 (Nationwide) award was presented to Bridal Cleary, who the presenter said was a diver, cheerleader and student ambassador planning to attend Indiana State to study marketing and business law. The award is given in two payments: $500 now and $500 in the spring, the presenter said.
The $500 SRI scholarship was presented to Carson Pazanka (spelling per transcript), who played football and plans to attend Thomas More College and play football. The presenter and Zach Hughes of SRI highlighted the students' essays and the rarity of having two winners from the same high school in one year.
Remarks: Zach Hughes of SRI said, "SRI works with Dearborn County and a number of other counties around the state for tax sales and sheriff sales ... we're just thrilled that we're able to help a little bit with your future and give back to the state of Indiana and Dearborn County. So congratulations, and good luck." Commissioners and staff posed for photos with the winners.
Follow up: No formal action was required; scholarships were presented as a community recognition during the meeting.
