Rotary Scholars

Service above Self

As part of the recognition the Rotary Club presented its annual “Service Above Self” award to three seniors, one from each of the schools. The recipients were chosen by staff from their schools as the best representatives of the Rotary ideal of “Service Above Self.”

The recipient from New Ulm High School was Maya Sarkar, daughter of Gautam Sarkar and Linda Sarkar. The recipient from Cathedral was Jenessa Rothmeier, daughter of Pete and Sue Rothmeier. The recipient from MVL was Allison Grunke, daughter of Tim and Theresa Grunke of Fairfax.

Each recipient receives a $500 scholarship grant from the New Ulm Rotary Club.
