Tonight, the Foundation awarded the Logan Murphy Mengold Memorial Scholarship and the Jane White Scholarship to two deserving young students from Pomperaug High School. We are in our fifth year of awarding these scholarships and the students continue to impress and inspire us.
Logan’s scholarship is awarded to a student who has participated in sports he loved and who demonstrates strong character, good sportsmanship and a passion for competition, all qualities Logan exemplified. This year’s recipient is Riley O’Brien.
Jane White was Logan’s 3rd Grade Teacher who retired in 2019 after 23 years of teaching in Region 15. Jane is an extraordinary teacher who showed tremendous care and compassion to Logan, our family, Logan’s friends and ALL of her students. This scholarship is awarded to a student who demonstrates kindness, compassion and a desire to help others, all qualities that Jane exemplifies. This year’s recipient is Alexa Cloutier.
Riley and Alexa are remarkable students and we wish them and the Pomperaug Class of 2024 the best of luck and congratulations on their upcoming graduation!
