Drake State Technical College has established the counselor’s choice
award for May 2008 high school graduates. Drake is allowing high school
counselors from Huntsville city, Madison city, and Madison county school
systems to select one student from each high school to receive the
$1,000 scholarship.
In order to qualify, a student must be a 2008 high school graduate and
have at least a 2.5 grade point average. Students must submit a Drake
admissions application, an official high school transcript, and a
counselor’s choice award application to be eligible for the scholarship.
Crystal Johnson, a Sparkman High School senior, was selected by her
college and career counselor, Roger Hillis, to receive the Drake
counselor’s choice award.
“Crystal has always been interested in attending Drake and becoming a
nurse,” stated Hillis. “She immediately came to mind when Drake
announced this scholarship opportunity.”
Drake plans on establishing the counselor’s award as a permanent
scholarship. Counselor’s award submissions are due April 30.
For more information contact Christina Scissum, Drake counselor, at
