LOUISVILLE, Ky. Holding a check reminiscent of Publishers Clearing House commercials, Jefferson County Public Schools Superintendent Dr. Marty Pollio traveled across the county Friday to surprise four high school seniors.
Each student, greeted outside their house, received a check ranging from $5,600 to $22,000 to help pay for post-secondary education. The money was donated by JCPS employees as part of the Employee-Sponsored Student Scholarship Fund.
Central High School senior Cheyla Tabares Cuesta was surprised at her home in the Highview neighborhood Friday morning, never expecting to see her superintendent outside with a gaggle of reporters and staff.
