Waynesburg University has awarded Isabella Griffith, a high school senior from Cecil, the Founders Scholarship.
Griffith is the daughter of Josh and Joane Griffith. She attends Cornerstone Christian Preparatory Academy in West Mifflin.
"I am so grateful [to be] selected for the Founders Scholarship," Griffith said. "It is truly a blessing that I will not take for granted."
At Cornerstone, Griffith is a member of National Honor Society and is consistently on the honor roll.
She participates in various clubs and groups at school and holds a leadership position as a mentor for middle school students.
Griffith intends to pursue a psychology major and a forensic investigation minor. Her ultimate goal is to work as a profiler or behavioral analyst.
"I am most excited to become involved with the Waynesburg community this fall," added Griffith. "I [look] forward to meeting new people, joining a Bible study and beginning my major."
Other recipients of the Founders Scholarship for 2023 include Diana Hernández, Mason Lewis, Waverly Lorne, Ethan Mata and Amanda Sweeney.
