Henry awarded Bruce E. Higham Scholarship

Bellefontaine High School senior Lorenz Henry was awarded a prestigious scholarship on Tuesday.

Henry is this year’s Bruce E. Higham Scholarship recipient at BHS.

Lorenz will be attending The Ohio State University in the fall majoring in mechanical engineering. His parents are Larry and Gingging Henry.

Bruce E. Higham was a 1938 graduate of Bellefontaine High School and a 1943 graduate of The Ohio State University, where he earned a degree in engineering. Mr. Higham passed away in 2002 in Jamestown, Ohio, where he had lived since the mid-1980s. The Board of Trustees of the Jamestown Area Foundation, Inc. awards a full four-year college scholarship to one Bellefontaine High School male graduate each year under the Bruce E. Higham Trust.

The scholarship includes all tuition, room, board, books, and a stipend for academic supplies. The scholarship is for attendance at any State of Ohio public-supported college or university.
