OHS seniors were awarded the Lyle Neeb Perseverance Award on Nov. 2 at Oconomowoc Rotary’s regular noon meeting held at the Lake Terrace Clubhouse on the Shorehaven campus.
Oconomowoc students were recognized for their valiance and resourcefulness in their personal and academic ventures. The Lyle Neeb Perseverance Award is named after dedicated Rotarian and former OHS staff member Lyle Neeb, who initiated the scholarship program decades ago to support students overcoming life challenges.
“The most important thing today is that you believed in yourselves.”
— Jason Curtis, Principal of Oconomowoc High School
Rotary continues to dedicate funds toward continuing education for students recommended by OHS staff.
“You continue to remind us, as Rotarians, to continue to show up and to care. And we thank you for that.”
— Becky Hammer, Rotary Club President
