Fayette County Association of School Retirees awards scholarship, educational grant
The Fayette County Association Of School Retirees awarded its annual scholarship to Evan Townsend, a 2022 graduate of Uniontown Area High School.
Townsend was accepted at PennWest California, and is majoring in secondary social studies and physical education. Through his many volunteer experiences, Townsend said it is very rewarding to coach and assist children in acquiring new skills and to see the joy in their faces when they are successful. His main goal as an educator is to make a difference in a student蘑菇视频 life and in the classroom.
The recipient of the 2023 Scholarship will be a senior in the Albert Gallatin Area School District who is majoring in education. Any senior at the high school can contact lwargo@atlanticbb.net for more information.

The grant will pay for the cost of the contemporary novels as well as shipping.
