2022 RVC Ed Foundation Scholarship Winner!
On Monday, June 13, at the South Side High School Senior Awards evening the Rockville Centre Education Foundation awarded a $1000 scholarship to senior Nicholas Giangregorio.
The Foundation annually presents the scholarship to the South Side high school senior who best demonstrates how Foundation grants enriched the student’s academic career.
Nicholas detailed how the Middle School Robotics Club, funded by a grant from the RVC Ed Foundation instilled a passion for computer technology and engineering. In High School, Nicholas became the lead programmer for Robotics and wrote the Robotics Team Engineering Notebook. Nicholas grew as an engineer and programmer, as well as a teammate and leader. For Nicholas Robotics was a truly unforgettable experience that taught him many valuable skills and lessons.
The RVC Education Foundation raises money to fund grant proposals submitted by school district teachers and administrators. These proposals are researched attempts to create new and unique ways of learning for children on every grade level. For the upcoming 2022 - 2023 school year funded grants will total nearly $50 000 and are distributed on a districtwide or individual school basis.
STEAM projects, art and theater endeavors, robotics, and 3D computers are just a small sampling of programs funded by the Education Foundation.
Congratulations, Nicholas!
