More than 82 Carson High School seniors and ten enlisted students were recognized Thursday night for collectively earning more than $10 million in local, national and college scholarships (a number that will continue to rise).
Their accomplishments, which highlighted the academic success of the Class of 2025, were celebrated in an awards ceremony Thursday, May 22, at the Carson City Community Center.
“The Class of 2025 has truly raised the bar,” said Mike Walker, Carson City School Board vice president and emcee for the awards ceremony. “This class has been offered more scholarships from colleges than any class in the past three school years—an extraordinary accomplishment.”
“Our students will be attending a wide range of prestigious institutions including: USC, with a full-ride scholarship, Lehigh University, Utah Tech, Salem College with a full ride, the Merchant Marine Academy, University of New Mexico, Wooster College, BYU Provo BYU Idaho, Montana State, Oregon State, Bushnell University, UNLV and, of course, our local Tier I institution—UNR,” Walker continued. “And that’s not all. In an inspiring and unprecedented trend, many of our students are also pursuing careers in the skilled trades, beginning their journeys at Western Nevada College and TMCC. This shows the span of talent and vision within this class, and it’s a testament to how Carson City celebrates all post-secondary paths.”
Scholarships were presented for more than two hours by contributing organizations and representatives. To view the evening’s entire program and slideshow, please click here.
