Scholarship Grant from Skillpointe Foundation and Schneider Electric

Congratulations are in order for 11th grader, VP of SGA, second semester City Tech student, and first P-TECH recipient to receive a $2500.00 Scholarship Grant from Skillpointe Foundation and Schneider Electric, Janielle Livingston.

Janielle received notification on Monday, October 31, 2022 (while at home ill) that she is 1 of 20 students awarded a scholarship grant. Applicants submitted a 500-word essay related to their fields of interest, i.e., building automation, security, IT, electrical, HVAC, construction maintenance, and/or a building-related field.

Janielle wrote about her passion to improve the lives of those “less fortunate.”

Read a snippet of her response below:

“…being financially able to help restore communities was what sparked my desire to pursue an early college degree in Computer Information Systems at Pathways in Technology Early College High School (P-TECH) …. During my first college “tech” course, Introduction to Computer System (CST), I realized my zest to create things through programming or/and buildings would improve the lives of others and provide possibilities for those who are less fortunate. The CST class confirmed what I know; I want to be a coder. To date, I have learned and used Python and JavaScript's fundamentals (i.e., programming shapes, placing them in various places, creating avatars) and quickly being able to find errors in my code (this is very important.)”

Congratulations, Janielle Livingston!
