Scholarship Winner: Marcela Molina

Congratulations Marcela Molina, from Sharpstown International School!

For the third year in a row, Texas Mattress Makers is a proud sponsor of KPRC’s Senior Scholarship Program!

This week’s Senior Scholarship Winner is Marcela Molina! Earlier this week we joined KPRC’s team to surprise Marcela during class with a $2,500 scholarship! She is on both the Soccer and Cheerleading teams at Sharpstown International School. Additionally, she also works at an internship for accounting. Marcela lost both of her parents in the span of just four years. However, that hasn’t stopped her from being an outstanding student. She says, “I have goals that I am determined to grasp.”

On top of maintaining academic success and being a student athlete, Macela is also in band and choir as well as being in the Genesys Works program. After graduation, Marcela has accepted a full-ride scholarship to the University of Houston and study Psychology. She will be the first person in her family to ever go to college.

Be sure to catch this program every Wednesday during the 6 AM and 11 AM news on KPRC, Channel 2!

All winners have been nominated by their school. If you are interested in learning more about the selection process, you can contact KPRC here.
