SGS Student Secures $120,000 Schulich Leader Scholarship

A big congratulations to Gabe Thacker for recently being awarded a $120,000 Schulich Leader Scholarship. Gabe, along with his twin sister Ria, are the 2024 co-valedictorians at Senator Gershaw School. Schulich is a STEM scholarship for undergraduates with 100 of these highly coveted awards given to students attending one of 20 partner universities across Canada each year. 

As Gabe will be taking a degree in engineering at the University of Alberta in September this year, he was eligible for one of fifty $120,000 scholarships. The other 50 scholarships are valued at $100,000 and are for students enrolled in science or math undergraduate programs.  

Gabe signed up with GrantMe Educational Consulting, which provided him with a list of scholarships he was eligible for. In addition to the Schulich Leader Scholarship, Gabe was also awarded $6,000 for being a Loran finalist. 

Prairie Rose Public Schools wishes Gabe the best of luck in all his future endeavors.
