Golden LEAF Scholarships
Each year, the Golden LEAF Foundation awards 215 scholarships to promising students from rural North Carolina communities.  This year, two Rosman High School seniors, Michael Bagwell and Carli Batson, each received a four-year $12,000 scholarship.  As part of the scholarship program, students are eligible to participate in leadership activities and summer internships through the Center for Creative Leadership (CCL).  The CCL is among the top four entities in the world for leadership training, and one of its goals is to support rural communities by providing student internships in rural counties.  Michael Bagwell plans to attend Appalachian State University and major in parks and recreation management.  Carli Batson plans to attend Brevard College and major in chemistry, with a goal of attending veterinary school after college.
