Province�s Latest Scholars Announced
The Provincial Government
has awarded the Junior Jubilee, Constable W.C. Moss,
Electoral District and Centenary of Responsible
Government Scholarships to over 200 students across
Newfoundland and Labrador. The scholarships recognize
the academic achievement of high school students who go
on to pursue university or college and in total are
valued at over $200,000.
�These scholarships are a
wonderful way for the Provincial Government to
acknowledge the hard work of so many students from
communities throughout Newfoundland and Labrador,� said
the Honourable Darin King, Minister of Education. �We
are making tremendous investments to ensure
post-secondary education is both affordable and
accessible. These scholarships will also help with the
costs of university and college and support students who
will become our province�s future leaders.�
The Junior Jubilee
Scholarship, valued at $2,500, is awarded to the student
who attains the highest score in high school in the
province. This year�s recipient is Amy Powell who
attended Roncalli Central High School in St. Barbe
district
The Constable W.C. Moss
Scholarship is awarded to the son or daughter of a
member of the Royal Newfoundland Constabulary or the
Royal Canadian Mounted Police (active, retired, or
deceased) who, other than the Junior Jubilee winner,
achieved the highest scholarship score. This year�s
recipient of the $1,000 scholarship is Michael Dwyer,
who attended Mount Pearl Senior High in the district of
Topsail.
The Electoral District
Scholarships, valued at $1,000 each, are awarded to the
three high school graduates in each district who
achieved the highest scores. As well, 55 Centenary of
Responsible Government Scholarships, valued at $1,000
each, have been awarded to graduating students, other
than the winners of the Electoral, Junior Jubilee and
W.C. Moss Scholarships, who earned the highest scores in
the province.
A full listing of all
scholarship winners is provided below.
�I offer my sincere
congratulations to this year�s scholarship recipients,�
said Minister King. �I commend them for not only
choosing to pursue post-secondary education, but for
performing well enough to merit scholarships. I wish
each of them good luck as they embark on their
post-secondary adventures, and best wishes for continued
excellence in academic achievement.�
