🎉 Exciting News for North Callaway! 🎉
This summer, Sophia Geppert, a proud member of the North Callaway High School Class of 2025, was awarded a rootEd Alliance Undergraduate Scholarship—worth up to $12,000 per year, renewable for five years. That’s as much as $60,000 to support her as she pursues her bachelor’s degree at the University of Missouri – Columbia! 🐯💛
Only 30 of these scholarships are awarded each year across Missouri high schools that partner with rootEd, and the competition was especially tough this year. Sophia’s accomplishment is truly something to celebrate! 🙌
Since 2018, rootEd Missouri has partnered with rural high schools to help students graduate with a plan—whether that’s college, career training, military service, or entering the workforce. In the coming school year, rootEd will serve 174 schools across Missouri, reaching nearly half of all rural high schools in the state.
👏 Please join us in congratulating Sophie on this incredible achievement!
