Scholarship recipients were selected based on academics, demonstrated leadership, participation in school and community activities, educational and career goals, and outside recommendations.

“I am so thankful that PSSI invests in those who are investing in themselves,” said Mayla Reyna, PSSI regional recruiter and scholarship winner. “As an adult learner, knowing I have extra support while continuing my education inspires me to continue to learn and grow both personally and professionally.”
