Three students awarded scholarships

Ainsley Warmuth announced to Historic City News local reporters that the St. Johns County Medical Alliance has recently awarded academic scholarships to three graduating high school seniors who intend to pursue an education in medicine.

Scholarship applicants are evaluated on academic ability, school involvement, and community service.

Each year, the St. Johns County Medical Alliance, in conjunction with the St. Johns County Medical Society, offers academic scholarships to graduating St. Johns County high school seniors pursuing an education in pre-medicine, nursing, or allied health.

The following three students each were awarded a $1,000 scholarship from the Alliance:

Emma Domingoes, from Nease High School, will study pre-medicine at Davidson College in Davidson, NC

Hunter Green, from St. Augustine High School, will study pre-medicine at Samford University in Birmingham, AL

Jacob Sambursky, from Creekside High School, will study pre-medicine at the University of Central Florida

The St. Johns County Medical Alliance represents spouses of St. Johns County physicians. Its purpose is to promote health education, identify and address health-care needs and issues, participate in health-related legislation, and provide college scholarships to St. Johns County students.
