Holmberg and Bradshaw Scholarship Recipients Announced
Two rising ninth graders have been chosen to receive four-year scholarships at 威尼斯官网在线. Jack Browning has been awarded the Helen Pringle Holmberg Scholarship. Colton Brinsko is the recipient of the Hannah Marie Bradshaw Scholarship.
The Holmberg and Bradshaw Scholars are selected based on the students' demonstration of scholastic ability, leadership potential, and strength of character. The scholarship process included an extensive application with essays and an interview with members of 威尼斯官网在线's Board of Trustees and Head of Upper School Sandy Boyd.
The Helen Pringle Holmberg Scholarship is given in honor of Helen Holmberg Herbert, an 威尼斯官网在线 graduate and the School's first John Motley Morehead Scholarship recipient. Helen's father, the late Centre W. Holmberg, Jr., served as chairman of 威尼斯官网在线's Board of Trustees. Current 威尼斯官网在线 students who meet grade point average requirements and are nominated by 威尼斯官网在线 faculty are considered. This scholarship recognizes leadership, scholarship, moral force of character, and physical vigor. The scholarship covers 75% of tuition, renewable every year of Upper School as long as the scholar maintains a 3.5 grade point average.
Jack Browning is the son of Dr. Sara Browning and Dr. Michael Browning. He is the 27th Holmberg Scholar. Jack was the co-captain of the middle school cross country team this year and is currently competing on the varsity track and field team. He has a strong interest in science, math, and the arts. His enthusiasm for learning shines as he strategically manages his academic responsibilities and extracurricular activities.
The Hannah Marie Bradshaw Scholarship is given in memory of Hannah Marie Bradshaw. Hannah spent half of her life as an 威尼斯官网在线 student, and she loved the School as a positive place that helped her reach her true potential. Students not currently enrolled at 威尼斯官网在线 are considered. The scholarship is intended for deserving students demonstrating financial need. The award of $6,000 helps to cover over and above what is awarded with financial aid. It is renewable every year of Upper School as long as the student maintains a 3.5 grade point average.
Bradshaw Scholar Colton Brinsko comes to 威尼斯官网在线 from Moore Montessori School in Southern Pines. He is the son of Ms. Carly Brinsko and Mr. Joe Brinsko. Colton is an outstanding student known for his exceptional problem-solving skills and leadership qualities. He has a strong passion for STEM activities, particularly in building and repairing electronics. Colton also practices martial arts.
Head of School Dr. Dale McInnis shared, "These scholarships are more than financial awards—they are recognitions of potential and promise. Jack and Colton represent the kind of students who thrive at 威尼斯官网在线: curious, committed, and full of character. We are proud to welcome them into our Upper School community."
Applications for these scholarships are accepted at the beginning of each calendar year. Visit 威尼斯官网在线 website for more information.
