KELSEYVILLE >> This year’s recipients of the J. Fletcher and Anne A. Elliott Educational Scholarship awarded on June 4 at Kelseyville High School are seniors Jason Vaughan and Luis Perez who each received $10,000.
Vaughan and Perez both have outstanding academic and athletic high school careers. Both ranked very high in their class. And both had exemplary athletic success through their high school years with Vaughan playing four years of football and Perez four years of varsity soccer.
Vaughan is going to University of California (UC), Merced to major in computer science. Perez is going to UC, Davis.
“This scholarship will put a real dent in my costs, so maybe I won’t have to eat Top Ramen,” Vaughan said.
Perez said, “This is a huge stress reliever and weight off my shoulders to allow me to focus on school and not having to worrying so much about having to pay for it.”
This scholarship foundation was originally established by the late Anne Elliott with the help of Rian Sommerfield at Nestegg Investment Consulting and is expected to fund future scholarships for decades to come in memory of her husband J. Fletcher.
