Additionally, Class 101- Lexington awards a $1,000 scholarship. On June 4th, we celebrated our 2024 Class 101 Scholars. Mallory Jones, a junior at George Rogers Clark High School, received the Class 101-Lexington local scholarship, while Joby Mitmesser, a senior at George Rogers Clark High School was awarded a Class 101 National Scholarship. We are immensely proud of both of these students. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
