The 2014 Machias Savings Bank High School Scholarships have been announced. This year the bank awarded 13 high school students, who have plans to continue their education and who reside in the bank’s market areas, with a one-time $500 scholarship.
Machias Savings Bank’s goal is to promote leadership skills, participation in area communities, time management skills, and the desire to continue education. Through this scholarship, these goals are being reached. The students chosen for this scholarship demonstrate these qualities and have maintained a high scholastic performance while being active either in their schools or community.
Scholarship recipients in Aroostook County include Meghan Hebert and Macy Palmer, both of Hodgdon High School. Hebert is planning to study secondary mathematics education, while Palmer will study accounting. Also, Carsyn Koch of Washburn District High School, who is planning to study medicine, and Joshua Salkind of Easton Junior/Senior High School who will study economics.
