Tewksbury Shawsheen Tech Students Receive Scholarships

For the second straight year, more than 90 seniors at Shawsheen Valley Technical High School earned the prestigious John and Abigail Adams Scholarship.

It’s the second straight year that 91 students have been honored, tied for the most in Shawsheen’s history.

“It is particularly gratifying to see increasing numbers of Adams scholarship recipients at Shawsheen Tech each year,” said Tim Broadrick, Shawsheen’s Superintendent-Director. “This is a testament not only to the hard work of our dedicated professional staff, but also to the work ethic and resilience of our students. I couldn’t be more proud.”

Eligible students score in the Advanced category in either the Mathematics or the English Language Arts section of the Grade 10 MCAS test and score in the Proficient or Advanced category on the second subject (Mathematics or English Language Arts). These students also have a combined MCAS score on these assessments that ranks in the top 25 percent in their school district.

That group consisted of Shane Araujo, Lauren Barletta, Ryan Barry, Paul Browne, Cole Bugley, Scott Callahan, William Catyb, Steven Conley, Derek DeCost, Matthew Ducey, Michelle Farraher, Brenna Ferreira, Garrett Goempel, Olivia Gouveia, Cole Haley, Molly Harrington, Emilie Hines, Janina Yutkins-Kennedy, Nicole Kopacz, Charles MacMillan, Nicole Malfa, Ashley McCreedy, Daniel McCrevan, Marie Merlino, Gabriella Molinar, Jackson Roane, Jared Roane, Haley Souza, Alexander Tate, Robert Temmallo, Katelyn Vocell, David Volpe and Steven Wink.
