BRENT COOPER AND RONDI GARNER HAVE BEEN NAMED AS MR. AND MRS. SUMNER HIGH SCHOOL.

The Tangipahoa Volunteers for Family and Community Council is offering a scholarship to a 2010 graduating senior of a Tangipahoa public, private, parochial, or home schooled qualifying senior.

The Louisiana Sheriffs’ Scholarship Program will award scholarships providing assistance to worthy Louisiana students in furthering their education and training with resources made available through the Louisiana Sheriffs’ Honorary Membership Program.
According to Program Chair, St. Charles Parish Sheriff Greg Champagne, “This Scholarship Program is a meaningful expression of the Program’s respect for education. It demonstrates our confidence in Louisiana’s youth . . . our future leaders.”

TANGIPAHOA PARISH STUDENTS OF THE YEAR and Runner-ups were recognized at the Tuesday, March 2 meeting of the Tangipahoa Parish School Board. Shown, back row from left are Scarlett Splane of Sumner High, First Runner-Up in High School; and Christopher Blanchard of Ponchatoula High, Student of the Year in High School. Middle row from left are Kaylan Showers of Independence Middle, Second Runner-Up in Middle School; and Amal DeAlwis of SLU Lab School, Student of the Year in Middle School.

The ENOS F. "JAKE" BAILEY ABOVE AND BEYOND AWARD has gone to Kristy Ard, a teacher at Independence Elementary for going above and beyond the call of teaching. Ard was presented the award by School Board member Sandra Bailey-Simmons and was congratulated by her principal, Cathy LeBlanc. Ard was chosen because she recently saw a need in a child and provided that child and a sibling with a temporary home. "She not only showed compassion to these children, she showed her own three boys what it means to have compassion," LeBlanc said.
