Bronco Federal Credit Union is pleased to award eight high school seniors from the community with scholarships to help them begin their continued education journey.

This year’s program awarded two $5,000 scholarships, three $3,000 scholarships and three $1,000 scholarships to the graduating seniors.

Selena Johnson of Southampton Academy and Taylor Cross of Southampton High School are the recipients of the $5,000 John Alan Glasgow Memorial Scholarships. This scholarship is named in memory of John Alan Glasgow, Class of 1999, to recognize the scholastic and life achievements of a graduating student.

Skylar Old of Nansemond River High School is the recipient of the $3,000 Charles A. Wrenn Scholarship. Katherine Henk of Smithfield High School is the $3,000 recipient of the James C. Copeland Scholarship. These two named scholarships were just added in 2018 in recognition of two long-serving board members and former board chairmen who dedicated over 30 years to the BFCU  board of directors.

Ashyln Edwards of Southampton High School was awarded the $3,000 Bronco Scholarship. Grant Hasty of Windsor High School, Dajour Faulk of Lakeland High School and Haleigh Andrew of Southampton High School were the $1,000 Bronco Scholarship recipients.
