Small but Mighty
In an overwhelming display of generosity, the North Mason Scholarship Foundation and community organizations awarded over $500,000 to seniors from NMHS and James A. Taylor High School at the Award Ceremony held last night. Recipients were beaming with joy, their faces bright with pride and gratitude as they walked up to receive their awards. It was a myriad of emotions in the faces of families, friends, staff, and administration that had gathered to celebrate. In between the speeches and awards was loud clapping and cheering to congratulate the students, many of whom made the walk up to the podium multiple times. At the end of the evening, students gathered in front of the bulldog backdrop for a picture with family, friends, and donors. Another small step on their way to do mighty things.

En una abrumadora muestra de generosidad, la Fundación de Becas North Mason y organizaciones comunitarias otorgaron más de $500,000 a estudiantes del último año de NMHS y de la escuela secundaria James A. Taylor en la ceremonia de premiación celebrada anoche. Los destinatarios estaban radiantes de alegría, con los rostros brillando de orgullo y gratitud mientras caminaban para recibir sus becas. Había una gran cantidad de emociones en los rostros de las familias, amigos, personal y administración que se habían reunido para celebrar. Entre los discursos y los premios hubo fuertes aplausos y vítores para felicitar a los estudiantes, muchos de los cuales subieron al podio varias veces. Al final de la noche, los estudiantes se reunieron frente del bulldog para tomarse una foto con familiares, amigos y donantes. Otro pequeño paso en su camino para hacer cosas poderosas.
