Rasberry named to award program


Renea Rasberry, of Pecos, has been named an All-American
Scholar by the United States Achievement Academy.

The USAA has established the All-American Scholar Award
Program to offer deserved recognition to superior students
who excel in the academic disciplines. The All-American
Scholars must earn a 3.3., or higher, grade point average.
Only scholars selected by a school instructor, counselor, or
other qualified sponsor are accepted. These scholars are
also eligible for other awards given by the USAA.

Rasberry, who attends Pecos High School, was nominated for
this national award by school counselor Pat Cobos.

Rasberry's name will appear in the All-American Scholar
Yearbook, which is published nationally.

"Recognizing and supporting our youth is more important than
ever before in America's history. Certainly, winners of the
All-American Scholar Awards should be congratulated and
appreciated for their dedication to excellence and
achievement," said Dr. George Stevens, Executive Director of
the United States Achievement Academy.

The Academy selects All-American Scholars upon the exclusive
recommendation by teachers, coaches, counselors, and other
qualified sponsors. Once awarded, the students may be
recognized by the USAA for other honors.

She is the daughter of Dan and Annis Rasberry of Pecos.
Grandparents are Ruth Rasberry of Pecos and Jack and Nancy
Corbell of Stephenville.
