KILLEEN, Texas — In its first year hosting a scholarship program, The Carlson Law Firm awarded two Killeen Independent School District seniors $500 scholarships to begin their academic career.
Keniuh Russell from Killeen High School and Jason Martin from Shoemaker High School the two recipients of the Carlson Cares Scholarship will both be attending Prairie View A&M this fall.
“In their applications, I saw two students who were not only outstanding academic applicants, but also had the resolve to stand for what they believe in, which is a value our firm admires,” Managing Partner Craig Carlson said. “As the first recipients of our Carlson Cares scholarship, Keniuh and Jason have set a high bar. We’re proud that we were able to provide them with a head start on their college careers.”
