The Cartersville Schools Foundation signed five students as REACH Georgia Scholars this past November. These 8th graders include Isis Gillon, Karla Betancourt, Valerie Santos, Jacqueline Vargas, and Aneta Witherspoon. These students were selected based on their strong academic abilities and their notable drive to succeed.
REACH scholars who maintain the requirements of the contract will be awarded $10,000 over four years for college with the possibility of additional matching funds from the college they choose to attend.
