REACH Georgia is a needs-based mentoring and scholarship program providing promising students the support to graduate from high school and achieve postsecondary success.  Through academic, social, and financial support, REACH provides the resources to ensure selected students graduate from high school, access college, achieve postsecondary success and are prepared to join the 21st-century workforce.  Each Scholar who completes all program requirements receives up to $10,000 scholarship that was earmarked to him/her in the 8th grade. The Scholar is able to receive up to $2,500 per year for up to four years to be used at a two- or four-year Georgia REACH eligible institution of their choosing to be used towards the cost of attendance.  This morning, six students from Bethune Middle School were selected and recognized as REACH Georgia Scholars.  The recipients are Justice Edwards, Christopher Galler, Pilar Jones, Heather Milton, Andia Williams and Aunica Pafford. They are pictured with Rep. John Corbett of the Georgia Legislature and Superintendent of Schools, Dr. John Lairsey.
