Five LHS Students Awarded $109,000 Scholarships

LINDALE — Five Lindale High School students were each awarded $109,000 Post 9-11 GI Bill scholarships Wednesday from the U.S. Navy. Alexander Jamieson, Jessica Berry, Nathan Gray, Seandrea Williams and Lydia Olsen accepted their awards from Petty Officer David Rodriguez. The money will be used to pay for full tuition and books for each student as they begin their post-high school education. In return for their scholarships, students will be obligated to a 4-6 year enlistment with the Navy, depending on which career each student chooses.
