CARLYLE - Gordon F. Kells High School in Carlyle held its annual awards ceremony on June 12. 

During that ceremony, one of the awards given was a $500 bursary to Kassidy Schultz by the Carlyle branch of the Royal Canadian Legion. 

The legion bursary requires the recipient to be a descendant of a former or serving member of the Canadian Armed Forces, Allied Forces or the RCMP, and to be enrolled in a postsecondary institution. The recipients are also evaluated on academic performance, financial need and community involvement. 

Schultz is the daughter of Steve and Jolyn Schultz and granddaughter of George Schultz, who served in the Canadian Air Force for six years. She has spent her school years in Carlyle, and she is enrolled at University of British Columbia in September and will be studying anthropology.

During her life in Carlyle, she has been involved in student leadership. Schultz was also involved with the Cornerstone Theatre, and deeply involved in the theatre program at G.F. Kells. 

In addition to maintaining an exemplary set of marks during her high school career, she also worked at Carlyle Pharmasave, which is her family’s business.      

Schultz is an excellent recipient for the legion bursary for her first year in postsecondary education, and we wish her well in her future studies. Congratulations.

The legion also has a $1,000 bursary available for students going into their second year of postsecondary education. Anyone interested can apply to the Carlyle branch of the Royal Canadian Legion.
