Each year, the Pomerene Health Foundation awards a one-time $4,000 scholarship to assist a local High School Senior or College/University student who is pursuing a healthcare career. The student must have parents employed by Pomerene Hospital or Health Professionals of Holmes County, Inc. After reviewing this year’s applications, the Pomerene Health Foundation has awarded Spencer Dailey the $4,000 scholarship.



There are several criteria that must be met in the application process to be considered for this award. The student must be accepted or enrolled into a four-year or two/three-year technical school in a healthcare related field, have a cumulative High School GPA of 3.25, a minimum ACT score of 21 or SAT of 1,000, submit High School or College transcripts, provide one letter of recommendation and submit a 200 word essay.

After reviewing each application for academic excellence, financial need, ACT/ SAT scores, and extracurricular activities/community involvement and other achievements, Spencer Dailey was chosen to receive the scholarship.

Spencer will be attending Kent State University studying Biology / Pre-Medicine. He graduated from Strasburg Franklin Local High School where he was ranked second in his class. Spencer had an ACT score of 24, a 3.98 GPA, was Vice President of the National Honor Society, and Student of the Year.
