McLean Rotary Awards Four Scholarships
The McLean Rotary Club Foundation awarded scholarships to four students from Pimmit Hills High School at a luncheon of the McLean Rotary Club on Tuesday, April 29. Pimmit Hills is one of three Fairfax County adult/alternative high schools, designed to assist students who might not be able to complete high school in a regular setting because of age, language proficiency or other life circumstances. The four winners were Mohamed Hashi, Kim Ngoc Tang, Yetmwork Adnew and Marjorie Flores, and they all plan on using their scholarship money to continue their education at Northern Virginia Community College. Hashi, from Somalia, received $1,000 to study medicine, Tang, from Vietnam and Flores, from El Salvador, each received $500 to study business administration and Adnew, from Ethiopia, received $1,000 to study dentistry.
