Floyd County Schools Superintendent Anna Shepherd congratulates Kendyll Hall and Todd Prater on being selected as 2022 Rogers Scholars.
To be considered for the Rogers Scholar program, a student must be a sophomore, in the 45 county service area and have a grade point average of 3.0 or higher. Students must also want to develop their leadership and technology skills as well as entrepreneurship and community service. A total of 60 students will become Rogers Scholars. Initially, one student per county is selected. The 15 remaining spots will go to the next 15 students with the highest sores earned in the scoring process.
Superintendent Shepherd comments, “Congratulations Kendyll and Todd! We’re very proud of these two being selected to represent our county and district in the 2022 Rogers Scholar program. Both Kendyll and Todd attend Floyd Central High School. Kendyll will be a student in the Floyd County Early College Academy next year and Todd will continue being in the JROTC at Floyd Central.”
Being a Rogers Scholar gives students like these two access to scholarships at 19 colleges and universities in Kentucky. This summer, Kendyll and Todd will attend a 5 day program with other Rogers Scholars where they will develop their leadership skills, participate in team building exercises and work with professionals in engineering, healthcare and video production.
Superintendent Shepherd ends by saying, “Please join us in congratulating our students and future leaders, Kendyll and Todd, Floyd County’s 2022 Rogers Scholars.”
