Their parents were invited to attend.<\/p>\n<p>To qualify for the Superintendent Scholarship, high school seniors in the Bethlehem School District must have a minimum GPA of 3.7, be a resident of Pennsylvania and a first generation college student, and have attended Freedom or Liberty high schools for at least two years. Qualified students, who applied and were admitted to ESU, submitted an essay about their experiences, challenges they\u2019ve overcome, and their educational and professional goals. Finalists participated in an interview with Roy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is a great honor for us to award this scholarship to two outstanding students,\u201d Lucas said. \u201cI have no doubt they will both excel at ESU.
