Honoring Rotary Scholars
Saluting our future’s best and brightest from all around Charleston

May 10, 2005 — Rotarians were introduced to the 2005 Rotary Scholars, which included 20 bright Charleston County high school seniors who are bound for higher education. Accompanied by their parents and principals, each scholar received a certificate from our Club, as well as a $200 scholarship check to be used for their future education. One scholar per high school
was selected, who was the most deserving based on their accomplishments during their high school career.

Many belonged to the National Honor Society, Math Clubs, Latin Clubs, Junior Varsity and Varsity sport teams, even theater, and received academic and extracurricular awards and recognition. Many also were involved in their respective communities, and volunteered for such places as the American Red Cross and the local hospitals.
