Wake Forest Rolesville High Senior Named Morehead-Cain Scholar

A third Wake County Public School System student has been named a 2009 Morehead-Cain Scholar. Austin Shaw of Wake Forest Rolesville High was told he had earned the scholarship that pays all expenses for four years of undergraduate study, including the cost of a laptop computer and four summer enrichment experiences. Additional funding is provided for educational and experiential opportunities during the academic years. The value of the scholarship is about $80,000 for each in-state student. Wake Forest-Rolesville High School Principal Tina Y. Hoots says Shaw was on the alternate list and was named on Tuesday afternoon.

Two other WCPSS students, Julia Victoria Ramos of Fuquay-Varina High School and Patrick Joseph Short of Sanderson High School, were named Morehead-Cain Scholars last month.
