On April 10th at the Coliseum, Lakewood’s own Amaiya Washington was inducted into the Take Stock in Children scholarship program in a ceremony attended by the Mayor and the Superintendent for Pinellas county schools. She will be provided college tuition funds when the time comes, but this comprehensive program offers much more including mentors and enrichment activities designed to prepare her to succeed in College. We’re all very proud of you Amaiya, keep up the good work!

Dear Amalia: Sometimes it is awkward to be honored because we are not sure what we are supposed to do about it. I had a Kiwanis award in high school and I felt unworthy. But it was all OK.
Good for you. Be sure to mention it on job applications !! ! Love, Marg
