The House Restaurant, KGJ Roofing, The White Mountain Autism and the Darrin Reed Foundation recently awarded over $20,000 in scholarships to NPC students for the upcoming 26-27 school year.
The students gathered with their friends and families for a meal “on the house” courtesy of The House restaurant and owners Chris and Michelle Corbin.
Local recipients include Snowflake senior Shaylee Troutman, who took home the NPC On The House scholarship worth a generous $2,200. The scholarship will cover the cost of tuition for their first year at NPC. A student from Blue Ridge and Show Low were also recipients.
This year’s awardee of the KGJ Roofing-Building Futures One Roof at a Time scholarship in the amount of $3,000 went to Dylan Palensar of Blue Ridge High School. Last year’s KGJ scholarship recipient, Jack Harris of Holbrook, also joined the scholarship night’s festivities. He will continue to be supported by KGJ Roofing throughout his journey and has a bright future ahead of him, having earned his welding and OSHA certifications and top accolades at NPC.
