Today marks the 2013 outreach portion of AREA. We speak with students at Kopperl today and students at Abbot tomorrow on their life after high school. Should be lots of fun.

The Association for Rural Education and Advancement is pleased to announce the winners of our first annual scholarship award. We were very impressed with both the strength of all the applications and the sheer quantity that arrived.
Our $1000 scholarship has been awarded to Kasandra Mullins from Covington ISD. Kasandra is interested in pursuing a career as a pharmacist and has been accepted to Texas Tech University.
We also chose to award an additional $500 scholarship to Michael Vallon of Abbott ISD. Michael will attend Texas A&M university and after graduation hopes to return to the region and open a veterinarian clinic specializing in large animals.
We would like offer our congratulations and best wishes to both of these students.
We would also like to offer our heart-felt appreciation to those of you who donated to the fund. It's though generosity like yours that we will be able to continue helping our rural students.
