two scholarships for the 2019 graduating classes of Glenbard South

Georgia Institute of Technology pursuing a degree in Biomedical
Engineering. She is planning on working extremely hard to
become a successful female engineer and hopes to someday pay the
scholarship forward. The Glenbard West GEWC scholarship was awarded

she was awarded the Annual District 87 Art Show Purchase Award. Her
piece is to be mounted and hung on permanent display at Glenbard

and hope to earn more funds to raise the amount again in 2020.
