BCHS graduates earn millions in scholarships
June 1, 2023 - 9:15 pm
The figure is impressive to say the least.
During last week’s Boulder City High School graduation, it was announced that the graduates had been accepted to 26 different colleges and in the process had racked up 200 scholarships totaling just under $7.5 million. Not bad for 125 graduates.
In her speech to the class, BCHS Principal Amy Wagner said, “Today, we celebrate the credit that belongs to you—the courageous individuals who dared to dream, dared to act, and dared to make a difference. Throughout your high school journey, you stepped into this arena. You pursued your passions, faced challenges head-on, and dedicated yourselves to be your personal best. In the face of doubt and criticism, you persevered, knowing that true worth is measured by your own belief and the impact you make. In a world, where we are judged by likes, hearts and thumbs up, we all have critics. How we react and respond to that criticism is what defines us.”
