WABASH, Ind. (March 24, 2025)Five high school seniors who will be entering their freshman year of college this fall have been selected to receive a scholarship from the Beacon Scholarship Program for $2,500. There was a total of one hundred-eleven applications for this year’s program. After four stages of grading, our judges meticulously selected the five essays that not only answered the essay questions thoroughly and uniquely, but also exhibited a strong grammatical foundation.

The five recipients of the 2025 Beacon Scholarship Program are as follows:

  1. Madelynn Sprow – Caston High School
  2. Marissa Rowe – DeKalb High School
  3. Claire Templin – Oak Hill High School
  4. Cora Burns – Caston High School
  5. Ayla Cashdollar – Manchester Junior/Senior High School

As we congratulate these five students who are receiving the scholarship, we also wish them the best as them embark their new academic and life journey.
