Sam Houston Communty Scholars A Sam Houston High School-record nine seniors were awarded a $260,000 TCU Community Scholars scholarship in a surprise visit to the campus in late March. Victoria A., De’Aysia B., Kelsey B., Ruth C., Diana D., Sally H., Andra L., Andrew M., and Linda V. were all surprised as they walked into Sam Houston’s Little Theater full of fellow classmates and teachers cheering them on. The scholarship will finance four years of undergraduate studies. Sam Houston is one of 13 area schools that participate in the TCU Community Scholars Program, and this year approximately 40 scholarships will be awarded to students who must go through the normal application process for admission to TCU, plus complete extra essays and interviews to be accepted into the program.
