Attention, H.S. seniors: 2020 scholarship applications available

Pictured above (L-R) are four of last year’s winners: Mikayla Nuhn, Brianna Shipman, Kyra Figuerelli and Emily Jennings.

Applications are being accepted for the 2020 Killingworth Ambulance Association scholarships, with money available to graduating seniors who are residents of Killingworth and were enrolled in public or private high schools.

To be considered, applicants must plan on attending continuing-education institutions (two or four years) and have been accepted at a school. They must also major in the medical, emergency services (fire, police, etc.) or other allied fields, have performed community service and maintained a GPA of 3.0 or higher.

Completed applications must be postmarked no later than Friday, April 17, 2020, with certificates of scholarships awarded at the end of the school year.

In each of the past two years, the KAA awarded scholarships to 11 graduating seniors now enrolled in colleges across the country. Last year’s winners were Emily Jennings, Kyra Figuerelli, Brianna Livingston, Brianna Shipman and Mikayla Nuhn – all from Haddam-Killingworth High School.

A sixth recipient, Grace Murphy, attended Mercy High School in Middletown.
