Rosie Nix Surprises Scholarship Winners

Rosie and Scholarship Winners

When Evan, Meka, Jada and Taylor were called to Dr. Bailey's office this morning, they all thought the same thing, "what did I do to get called to the principal's office?" Little did they know that instead of getting in trouble, they would be surprised with family and Rosie Nix!
 
Through his foundation, Rosie Nix launched a scholarship for Reynoldsburg High School Seniors. Among the requirements was to submit a video talking about how they want to make an impact on the world. Rosie personally watched all the submissions and hand-picked four winners, all from the Encore Academy.
 
When the students came into Dr. Bailey's office they were greeted by their family, Superintendent Brown, Mr. Perkins and Mr. Purtell and Rosie himself. Rosie explained what it was about each video that he enjoyed and presented the students with a check for $1,000 to assist them in college.
 
Congratulations to Evan, Meka, Jada and Taylor! Thank you to Rosie, Serena and Luis from the Rosie Nix Foundation, and our staff and parents who worked to keep the scholarship announcement a surprise! Be sure to visit our Facebook page for more pictures and videos.
