SHREVEPORT, LA – In May, Calumet will award four area high school seniors a Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) Scholarship. The scholarships, which are $1000 each, are for students pursuing a STEM-focused degree who excelled in their high school curriculum with extra-curricular activities. Calumet believes that students majoring in STEM will play a vital role in its industry in the next generation.
On May 1, Calumet will present scholarships to Isabella Vincent from Benton High School and Hannah Frentress from Airline High School at the Bossier Parish School Board Meeting and on May 20, Arjun Desai from Caddo Parish Magnet High School and Shelby Owens from Captain Shreve High School will be presented their scholarships at the Caddo Parish School Board Meeting.
“Calumet is committed to supporting our schools and our students, especially when it comes to STEM education,” said Mike Achacoso, Sr. Vice President, Operations. “These four students are very impressive both academically and in character, and we’re excited to honor them and contribute to their future learning. We hope that our new scholarship program will not only encourage local students to excel in school, but also inspire them to pursue STEM careers in Louisiana.”
