Lincoln Community High School is proud to announce the recipients of the Oliver C. and Roberta M. Hursh Memorial Scholarship Awards. Mr. and Mrs. Hursh did not have any children of their own, but education remained very important to them. They believed that society should encourage the real achievers among us. As has been done for the last fifteen years, and will be for the next seven years, the valedictorian and the salutatorian of Lincoln Community High School will each receive 25% of the annual trust earned income. This year’s recipients will each receive $28,667.02.
