2006 Bay Area Council Scholars Announced

Congratulations to our first class of Bay Area Council Scholars! In addition to recognition from the Bay Area Council, each of our scholarship recipients have been acknowledged by Senator Boxer of the United States Senate for their outstanding accomplishments.

In our first year, we received student applications from 23 different high schools around the Bay Area, both public and private. We would like to thank our dedicated Scholarship Committee for their help in selecting the 10 most qualified students out of an outstanding pool of applicants.

We are proud to present the 2006 class of Bay Area Council Scholars, an amazing group of students who have each demonstrated strong potential to succeed and a passion for giving back to their communities. Click on their names to learn more about them.
