Picture


The Lakewood Women’s Club (LWC) has awarded a $3,000 scholarship to graduating high school senior Teegan McGann who graduated from Lakewood High School with a 4.545 GPA. She will attend Miami University this fall to major in business. She is leaning toward business economics or analytics, as she has a high aptitude for math and enjoys working with equations and solving problems. 
Teegan was a member of the National Honor Society, the all-girl Symphonic Treble Choir, the Concert Choir and Help 2 Others. She ran with the Cross Country, Indoor and Outdoor Track Teams serving as team captain. Teegan was active in parish life at St. Luke’s Church, Young Life and volunteer with organizations including The Ronald McDonald House, Home Alone and the Lakewood Youth Running program. Teegan also worked at Ennis Court and babysat. 
Teegan’s personal statement was a compelling element of her application. The volunteers who reviewed her application commented on the maturity and enthusiasm with which she wrote.
“Anyone with just enough empathy and heart can change the world – and that anyone is me. I believe that with just enough empathy, there lies just enough motivation and drive to make a change in our world. Given the resource available to me at Miami, I have no doubt that I can make an impact on the world.”
–Teegan McGann, 2022 LWC Scholarship Winner
The LWC Scholarship is awarded annually to a female Lakewood student graduating from high school, and pursuing additional education, whether that is college, vocational, technical or community college. The amount awarded varies and is dependent upon LWC’s fundraising efforts throughout the year. LWC is proud to support Lakewood women as they pursue further education.
The Scholarship Committee would like to thank all of the applicants for taking the time to apply for this year’s scholarship award. We wish all of the applicants much success with their college efforts.
