Samuel Luong, a senior at Wheeler High School, has been named the winner of a $5,000 scholarship from the Lockheed Georgia Employees Community Credit Union.
Luong (pictured second from right in the submitted photo above) was greeted in a surprise visit at the Wheeler campus with credit union officials and school leaders as he came to pick up his cap and gown.
During his time at Wheeler, Luong has been involved in robotics, orchestra, Magnet School advisory board, student government and other activities. He’s been accepted to attend Georgia Tech.
The scholarship award was among several public events for the LGE Credit Union in recent weeks. LGE has delivered more than 500 lunches to four local hospitals and has organized a food drive to support MUST Ministries, Warehouse of Hope in Douglasville, and North Fulton Community Charities in Roswell during the COVID-19 pandemic.
