LSCO awards Scholarships at Second Annual Career and Technical Education Signing Day

Lamar State College Orange held its second annual Career and Technical Education (CTE) Signing Day last night, awarding twenty-six students technical scholarships sponsored by local industry and foundation partners.

The event, patterned after a high school student "signing" his/her intent to play college sports, featured technical program scholarship awards from Chevron Phillips Chemical Company, the Donald T. Boumans Foundation, Invista Orange, Cloeren Incorporated, the Nelda C. and H. J. Lutcher Stark Foundation, and the LSCO Foundation. The incoming and current students who earned these scholarships, when called to the stage, signed their scholarship award certificate with their families, scholarships sponsors, and LSCO President, Dr. Thomas Johnson, by their side.

"Thanks to our generous local industry and foundation benefactors, our current and incoming LSCO students' futures will be much brighter. These technical scholarships represent a permanent investment in our students, which in turn, impacts our local community. We are so proud to celebrate these students and their achievements and we can't wait to watch them succeed in the coming Fall semester at LSCO," said LSCO President Thomas Johnson.

In attendance to congratulate their scholarship recipients were Craig Lemons and Vicki Derese from Chevron Phillips Chemical Company, Wendell Tilley and Lacey Lemoine from Invista Orange, Peter Cloeren, Stefan Cloeren, and Stephen Sandberg from Cloeren Incorporated, Clyde "Tad" V. McKee III from the Nelda C. and H. J. Lutcher Stark Foundation, and Former Orange Mayor Brown Claybar from the LSCO Foundation.
