Skowhegan Savings partnered with Bob Stuart, president of Yarmouth Educational
Consultants, Inc., to lead workshops at the schools
to answer student's questions about career paths,
college selection, and the cost of higher education.
The
goals of "Promise for the Future" are to ensure that all students know they can attend college, encourage them
to explore their college opportunities before high school,
to be an educational resource for students and parents
of the communities served by the bank, and to promote
communication between communities and their students
about the opportunities a college education can create.
Skowhegan Savings is proud to have offered "Promise for the Future" scholarships since 2001.
Adam Stetson is in Mrs. Page's 3rd grade class at Brownville Elementary School. Adam loves studying the aspects of space science, including planets, stars, asteroids and galaxies. Becoming an astronaut would be a "out of this world" experience for Adam. He has overcome many challenges in school to become a valuable resource for his classmates about space topics. To become an astronaut, Adam plans to study hard at the Community College of Rhode Island or the University of Illinois. Congratulations, Adam.
Congratulations to all the
2009 Promise for the Future winners!
