Penniman Scholars: Recognizing Excellence in English
December 12th, 2019

Congratulations to the 2019 Penniman Scholars. This year’s honorees are:
- Joie Lee – Seventh grade
- Ella Chapman – Eighth grade
- Carter McLean – Ninth grade
The trio and their parents were honored with a luncheon in Episcopal Head of School Hugh McIntosh's office on December 11. The Mary Virginia Penniman Scholars are determined by the grade level English teachers and presented to the outstanding English student in each Middle School grade.
Episcopal is honored to award the Penniman Scholarship on an annual basis to a sixth grader, seventh grader and eighth grader. The scholarship was established in Mary Virginia Penniman’s memory and is an on-going reminder of the devotion of one of the school’s founders for his commitment to Episcopal and its students. The Episcopal community is grateful to have the continued leadership of a founding member for over 50 years.
