Brooke Bowden, a senior at Monterey High School, has been selected the 106-9 Kicks Country/Lite Rock 95.9 Dream Big Scholar for April.
The award honors outstanding work in the classroom, leadership in school groups and organization, achievement in extra curricular activities as well as work in the community. One student from a high school across the Upper Cumberland wins the award each month.
In addition to Bowden’s classroom success, she takes part in Beta and the National Honor Society. She also participates in FCLA, I Am Club, and Rotary. Students at Monterey voted Bowden Student Government Vice President.
After graduation, Bowden plans to pursue a profession in occupational therapy.
Lite Rock 95.9 Morning Show Host Sheila Scruggs presented Bowden with a plaque during a visit to Montery High School. Bowden will join other Dream Big Scholars from the 2015-2016 academic year at a spring banquet.
Lite Rock 95.9 and 106-9 Kicks Country joined forces with The Tennessee Credit Union in 2014 to encourage rising seniors who want to Dream Big. Bowden now could win a $1,500 college scholarship, or one of two smaller scholarships. Parents, teachers, and local residents nominate graduating seniors for the award at 1069 Kicks Country Dot Com or Lite Rock 959 Dot Com.
