Libby High School trio wins Flathead Electric Cooperative scholarships

Flathead Electric Cooperative on Monday announced its 2017 Scholarship Program recipients, which include three Libby High School students: Niklaus Gier, Alexis Higareda and Braydan Thom.

The schlarships are funded by unclaimed capital credits that are dedicated to education. To qualify for the scholarships, students or their parent/guardian must be members of the Co-op and they must plan on attending an accredited Montana post-secondary institution.

Flathead Electric provides various scholarships to local high school students, as well as non-traditional scholarships for those members who want to further their education. FEC recognizes these students for their successful applications and dedication, and hopes this support helps them meet their educational goals.
