Three Valle Students Earn Scholarships In Pro-Life Essay Contest
Each year, doctors Tom and Julia Stanley sponsor a pro-life scholarship essay contest open to Valle Catholic seniors, eighth-graders, and fifth-graders. This year’s $500 scholarship winner is Bryce Palmer, son of Will and Veronica Palmer. He plans to continue his education at St. Louis University. The eighth-grade winner is Braden Coleman, son of Eric and Stephanie Coleman. He will receive a $250 tuition scholarship to Valle Catholic High School. The fifth-grade winner, Lane Okenfuss, son of Todd and Janie Okfenfuss, will receive a $250 tuition scholarship for his sixth-grade year at Valle Catholic. The scholarships are given in memory of Raymond Sexauer, a devout Catholic, school teacher, pro-life advocate, and father to Julia Stanley. (Photos, information from Valle Catholic Schools)
