DeWitt — Chloe Hayward, a senior at Jamesville-DeWitt High School, has won the 2016 Joseph Adams Senior Scholarship from the Sociedad Honoraria Hispánica (SHH), an honor society for high school students studying Spanish or Portuguese, for her dedication to the study of Spanish and excellent skills in that language.
This national award is a prestigious honor for Jamesville-DeWitt High School. The $1,000 scholarship is awarded to only 60 students from more than 2,400 SHH chapters across the United States. Students become eligible by being an inducted member of the SHH and then submitting samples of their written and oral work in Spanish to a selection committee appointed by the American Association of Teachers of Spanish and Portuguese.
Jamesville-DeWitt High School has a long history of excellence in academics and has maintained an active chapter of the Sociedad Honoraria Hispánica for the last 12 years.
Congratulations to student Chloe Hayward and her Spanish teacher Hank Cline who should be very proud of their accomplishments.
