Friends of Vocational Technical & Agricultural Education,

MAVA honored seven students from across the state last week during their General Membership Meeting. The students have been selected as U.S. Presidential Scholar nominees and will represent the Commonwealth. The students were selected by Interim Commissioner Dr. Russell D. Johnston.

Ten years ago, the U.S. Presidential Scholars program was expanded to include CTE students specifically. Presidential Scholars in CTE are selected for their “outstanding scholarship and demonstrated ability and accomplishment in career and technical education fields.” Nominees are selected from each state in the country based on their academic rigor, technical competence, employability skills, and ingenuity and creativity.

MAVA is most proud of these outstanding students and wish each of them continued success in the next round of competition.

Best wishes!

David
