Riversink Elementary School Establishes Leslie Drew Memorial Scholarship Fund

{sidebar id=3}Riversink Elementary Faculty and Staff would like to announce the establishment of the Leslie Drew Memorial Scholarship Fund. This scholarship will provide financial assistance to working mothers who are pursuing their Elementary Education Degree. Leslie Drew, who recently passed away, was a teacher’s assistant at Riversink Elementary and was attending evening classes at Flagler College to pursue her teaching degree. She was going to begin her teaching internship at Riversink in January.

Riversink Elementary Principal Jackie High states, “Leslie had such a positive impact on our students and staff. We wanted to honor her memory and felt this scholarship was the perfect way to do so.”

The scholarship fund has been set up at Wakulla Bank. A committee made up of faculty and staff from Riversink Elementary will be working to create the guidelines and nomination process for the scholarships. Contributions to this fund may be made at any Wakulla Bank or sent directly to Riversink Elementary School.
