HUTCHINSON, Kan. – During the annual Hutchinson High School Awards Assembly Wednesday, the HHS graduating class of 2014 was recognized with awards and scholarship from local, state and national sources.

Other finalists for the award were Cole Cruz, Brandon Heide, Ross Howard, Anna Kimmel, Matthew Nisly, Shea O’Sullivan, LaTasha Scales, Laura Sellers and Stacy Rottinghaus.
The Davis Foundation winners also were named. Winners, who each get $6,000 in scholarship money annually for four years, are Austin Garcia and Cecilia Villanueva. Other finalists were MacKenzie Justice, LaTasha Scales, Matt Sunner and Ethan Williams. The other finalists each get $4,000 a year in scholarship money for four years.
This is the 60th year for the Davis Foundation scholarships. During that time, more than 200 students have received scholarships. When the first scholarships were awarded in the 1950s, the scholarships were $500 a year for four years.
Davis Foundation teachers of the year for USD 308 will be announced in August at the opening convocation for district staff.
