Wade Hampton Junior Wins $500 Scholarship

Submitted by Greenville County Schools.

Wade Hampton High Junior Andrew Frazier is the state winner of the oLo Character Contest conducted by IT-oLogy, a non-profit group dedicated to advancing the IT profession. He won a $500 college scholarship and his design will be used to further develop the IT-ology character.

     To enter the competition, students in middle school, high school and college were asked, “Who is oLo? What does oLo look like and what are the characteristics?” More than 90 character entries were submitted by students from across South Carolina. The entries were then judged by a team of area professionals. 

     Two Greenville County Schools students also earned Honorable mention in the competition. They are Emmeline Berg, 10^th grade, Wade Hampton High School, and Charlie Hyman, 7^th grade, Mauldin Middle School.
