Fifteen Montgomery County Public School (MCPS) students are recipients of full-tuition, four-year college scholarships awarded by the Posse Foundation.
The students were honored at a ceremony on Jan. 8 at the Lincoln Theatre, according to an announcement from MCPS.
The Posse program identifies public high school students with extraordinary academic and leadership potential that may have been overlooked by traditional college selection processes.
Nationally, more than 65 colleges and universities each offer full-tuition, merit scholarships to students throughout the country and create multicultural teams—called Posses—on each campus. These student teams receive professional guidance before and throughout college and provide support to one another.
On campus, these students serve in important leadership roles.
Below is a list of this year’s MCPS Posse scholarship recipients. The students come from 11 high schools and will be attending six different colleges.
