The seniors of Lindblom are very busy with school and college, while college applying is winding down, scholarship season is rolling in. Many scholarships are being announced and seniors are encouraged to apply.
The counselors at Lindblom, Ms. Fitzpatrick, Ms. Weathers, Ms. Lindsay, and Ms. Andrews, are hunting seniors down and blowing up their emails just to make sure they are filling out scholarship applications. The counselors encourage us to have equal opportunities money wise toward college. Ms. Fitzpatrick said, “Many scholarships are coming out and I’m pushing you all to do them because every year students come to my office saying they need money but didn’t apply for scholarships- here’s the chance.” This push is in part why we are receiving scholarships. Posse scholarship winner, Senior Eduardo Alejandro, survived three rounds of competition and will receive a full tuition scholarship to Middlebury College in Vermont for four years. This opportunity wouldn’t be possible if he didn’t apply for the scholarship. There have also been many other scholarships awarded to Lindblom seniors.
Lindblom seniors are working very hard in and out school to make it easier to pay for college. Yet, on top of that and school work things can get a little stressful. All of this is very time consuming. Some of the students argue it’s just too much do. As senior, Randi Townsend said, this school year is moving along but it is “very stressful and hard to manage” with projects and homework. The scholarships keep piling up with due dates closer and closer to each other. Although, scholarship season is here and it is difficult to manage with sports and school work; Determination will help make things easier. Lindblom seniors continue do the scholarships and overcome most obstacles.
