Matthews, N.C. - Fifteen local high school seniors preparing for graduation were named Student Scholars at an award ceremony at Windsor Run, an Erickson Senior Living community in Matthews, N.C.

These hardworking student employees, who worked as servers and hosts across Windsor Run’s seven on-campus dining venues and met the qualifying criteria, were honored for their dedication and commitment. Their achievements are supported through scholarships funded by generous donations from community residents, helping to position these hardworking students for continued success. The student employees were each awarded a $4,000 scholarship.

"These students consistently go above and beyond in balancing work, school, and service to our residents," said Director of Resident Life Jillian Perry. "This scholarship program is only possible because of our residents' generosity, and the impact it has on our students is truly lasting."

To qualify for a four-year scholarship, students must work 1,000 hours over a 2-year period, remain in good academic and professional standing, and plan to attend a college, university, or trade school full-time.

"The Student Scholar program reflects our commitment to supporting team members at every stage of their journey," added Perry. “At Windsor Run, we strive to be a community where everyone who lives and works here can grow, learn, and thrive."
