Leadership posi ons held by Harrison included two years as FCCLA reporter, two years as BPA vice-president, freshman class offi cer (secretary), sophomore class offi cer (reporter), junior class offi cer (vice-president) and senior class offi cer (reporter).

“During her years at Colcord Public Schools, I have known Lyndsey to be an intelligent and capable student,” remarked Deena Blossom, Colcord High School Counselor. “In my opinion, she has the poten al to be an asset for any school or organiza on who is willing to give her the opportunity.”

CHS Biology instructor Brenton Cherry added: “Lyndsey has earned superior grades and displayed an above-average work ethic. Based on grades, a endance and class par cipa on, I would rate her academic performance in my class as excep onal. She has a number of strengths to off er any organiza on. She is resilient, determined, hard-working, resourceful, respec ul and honest. She has consistently shown her ability to work well with both her peers and younger students. Her involvement in civic ac vi es and contribu on to our community are testaments to her
Grant Crupper
Represen ng the Mayes County area in accep ng the 2017 REC College Scholarship is Grant Crupper. A 4.0 student focused on achievement, Crupper received the PHS Academic Excellence Award and was named valedictorian of his gradua ng class. An Oklahoma Academic Scholar, he is a member of both the Oklahoma and Na onal Honor Socie es. Addi onal achievements for Crupper included enrollment in AP Calculus, being named Northeast Technology Center Student of the Month, and membership in the Na onal Technical Honor Society.
Crupper has been accepted to Oklahoma State University and will begin his pursuit of a degree in Computer Engineering this fall.
A busy high school schedule for Crupper meant involvement in both basketball and student council, as
leadership and work ethic. I believe her performance in my class and devo on to excellence are an indica on of how she’ll perform in the future.”
