Altrusa announces scholarship winners

The Tucumcari chapter of Altrusa International announced its annual scholarships given to one student from each of the school districts and one community college in Quay County.

Each of the students received a $600 scholarship to attend a college or trade school of their choice. If they do not enroll, the scholarship will be given to an alternate.

The scholarship winners and their alternates by school:

• House High School: Avery Cavett, with Ross Lee as an alternate;

• Logan High School: Rilee Nials, with Reece Goldston as an alternate;

• San Jon High School: Saisravya Bandla, with no alternate;

• Tucumcari High School: Angela Vasquez, with Amber Owen as an alternate;

• Mesalands Community College: Heidi Hopkins, with Wyollah Moses as an alternate.

Scholarships awards were based on academic performance; financial need; the desire to attend college; leadership demonstrated by activities, community service and honors; and the ability to fill out the application completely.
