Congratulations,Students!

The Heritage School Headmaster’s Award was presented to Laura Perdomo by Head of School J.P. Watson the night of graduation for the Class of 2013.

Each year, members of the Coweta-Fayette Trust (the management arm of Operation Round-Up) award scholarships to outstanding students.

We take education very seriously here at Coweta-Fayette EMC, and we think it's among our corporate responsibilities to support local students and the educational systems within our service area. That’s why we established the Melissa Segars Memorial Scholarship which is funded through the EMC’s Operation Round-Up program.

So, thanks to participating EMC members who contribute to the fund monthly (they allow us to “round up” their electric bill to the next highest dollar and donate the difference), 18 outstanding students will receive assistance to further their education!

Yes, we congratulate all of you for your accomplishments and encourage you in your future endeavors.
