EGHS Senior Wins Hood Sportsmanship Scholarship Award

We are proud to announce that Senior Jamie Fugere was recently awarded a Hood Sportsmanship Scholarship Award.  Only three students were awarded this Scholarship in the State of Rhode Island and Jamie was fortunate enough to be one of the recipients among hundreds of Statewide participants.

Jamie was required to write an essay on the importance of Sportsmanship and Volunteer Work.  This was the first step in making the cut and her essay and photo were placed on the voting site under the High School of East Greenwich.  Most High Schools were represented with numerous individuals posted along with their essays and photos.  Then there was a month of voting that took place online, from which Hood took the top ten (10) in the State and interviewed each of them individually at McCoy Stadium.

Jamie received the great news last week
that she was a recipient of one of the three Hood Sportsmanship Scholarships which will be put to good use when she attends Providence College in the fall.

We are very excited and proud of the recognition awarded to Jamie and wish her great success at Providence College.
