SMITHFIELD MIDDLE 7th GRADER RECEIVES
COMMITMENT FOR A COLLEGE SCHOLARSHIP
Valery David
Mendoza, a seventh grader at Smithfield Middle
School, is one of two Johnston County students to
receive a Victor E. Bell Jr. Scholarship this year.
The other is Ximena Castaneda Aguilar of Swift Creek
Middle School.
Each Bell Scholar is eligible to receive up to
$20,000 so long as they meet renewal criteria worth
$2,000 annually from now through the completion of
four years in college --- a period of 10 years. The
funds are contributed to an account in the NC 529
Plan, with the student named as the beneficiary.
Valery is the daughter of Eliezer Tinoco Davis and
Maria Mendoza Mejia. She is a second-year
participant in AVID, the Advancement Via Individual
Determination program that supports students
striving to be first-generation college students.
Middle-school teachers, counselors, and "college
access groups" nominate students whose names are
randomly selected for the Bell Scholarship.
"Valery is dedicated to setting and achieving
rigorous goals for herself in all she endeavors to
do, and we are extremely pleased she was selected
for this scholarship," said Sarah Anderson,
Smithfield Middle School's AVID coordinator, in a
news release from Johnston County Public Schools.
