Congratulations to the winners of the 2022 North Falmouth Village Association scholarships! The four Falmouth High School graduates below will be off to college this fall with the help of a $1,000 award from the NFVA, which based its selections on academic achievements, community activities, and overall service.
• Skyler Falcone plans to begin pre-law studies at New York University before going on to law school. She also hopes to have time to travel.
• Colleen Caswell will study psychology at the College of Charleston in South Carolina. Ultimately she would like to pursue a master's degree and then apply to the Federal Bureau of Investigation. "I want to assist in criminal investigations by using behavioral analysis," she says.
• Brigid Murphy will study early childhood education at Clemson University in South Carolina, and her goal is to be a kindergarten teacher. Inspired by the story of Helen Keller, she wants to teach and help children with disabilities.
• Thomas Walker intends to major in computer engineering (hopefully at the college of his choice, University of Michigan). Wherever his career takes him, he says he'll always "bring a little of Falmouth with me."
Every year, the NFVA awards four $1,000 scholarship to graduating North Falmouth residents. The major consideration when awarding scholarships is service, either to the school or to the community.
