Green Scholars announced for CM 7-County area

By Tim Ballard Frankfort, KY - Thirty-six area students have been named Senator Jeff Green Scholars by the Kentucky Higher Education Assistance Authority (KHEAA). To earn this honor, a student must have a 4.0 grade point average each year of high school and at least a 28 composite on the ACT.

These students have also earned $2,500 a year in Kentucky Educational Excellence Scholarship (KEES) awards. If they keep their grades up in college, they will have $10,000 to use toward a four-year degree.

The designation honors the late state Sen. Jeff Green of Mayfield, who served in the Kentucky General Assembly from 1992 to 1997.

Area scholars are:


  • Adair County High School: Elijah Jackson.

  • Campbellsville High School: Alex Bailey, Austin Hash.

  • Casey County High School: Sidney Bernard, Courtney Buis, Sarah McDonald, Mary Moore, Matthew Wethington.

  • Cumberland County High School: Johnny Corbin, Keilah Coverstone, Molly Morgan, Keylee Stalcup.

  • Green County High School: Drue Hodges, Austin Matney, Laura Wright.

  • Metcalfe County High School: Rayanna Boston, Hayden Crain, Sarah Deckard, Noah Edmunds, Brilyn Garrett, Kennedy Harbison, Andrew Roach, Emma Shirley.

  • Russell County High School: Harrison Ackerman, Dalton Robertson, Susannah Roy, Kayla Thomas, Abigail Wilson.

  • Taylor County High School: Margaret Bertram, Allison Brockman, Virgillia Bruns, Danielle Dickens, Colton Graham, Jacqueline Howard, Reagan Pollock, Taylor Thompson.

KEES and other Kentucky student aid programs are administered by KHEAA. KEES awards are funded by net Kentucky lottery proceeds and may be used at most colleges and universities in Kentucky. In some cases, the award may be used at an out-of-state school if the major the student is pursuing is not available in Kentucky. No application is necessary for KEES awards.
