On Thursday, May 26, Los Banos High School proudly recognized 50 students at their senior scholarship awards ceremony. Students earned scholarships for a wide array of different areas. These include but are not limited to outstanding academic achievement, sports performance, college major, school clubs and extracurricular activities such as church involvement, community service, etc.  

Scholarship recipients were invited to attend the ceremony with their families. Numerous scholarship donors also attended to present their awards to the well deserving students.

Pacheco High and Los Banos High would like to extend their sincerest gratitude to the community. Without the community’s support, these events would not be possible. The amount of money that was able to be awarded to the senior students is a true testament to the generosity of the community.
