TK Whaley receives first John G. Lightner (‘80) Memorial Scholarship
The first recipient of the John G. Lightner (‘80) Memorial Scholarship is TK Whaley. The family of John Lightner presented the first scholarship to TK on July 29, 2020. TK is the son of Derek and Tammy Whaley of Aberdeen. TK is a 2020 graduate of Ripley Union Lewis Huntington High School who attended the Welding Program at Southern Hills Career and Technical Center. TK’s love for the outdoors has led him to pursue a career that keeps him in nature. He will be attending Hocking College this fall where he will be enrolled in the Wildlife Resource Management program
John G. Lightner was a 1980 graduate of Ripley-Union-Lewis High School. He completed the Welding Program at Southern Hills Career and Technical Center, formerly known as the Southern Hills Joint Vocational School, before beginning a lifelong career in machine operation. His wife Kristi (‘79) and daughter Karli (‘10) are also RULH graduates. John was well-known in the community as a hardworking man with a strong work ethic. He was always willing to help a friend or neighbor in need, and he never met a stranger as he was a friend to all.
One Ripley student who graduates from the SHCTC will be selected for this one-time scholarship each year. This scholarship may be used for students to further their education at a college, university, or trade school, or to assist in purchasing supplies and equipment for those ready to enter the workforce. Congratulations, TK!
SHCTC students and families,
As we navigate these strange times, I wanted to send out our reopening plan for the upcoming school year. The plan has been approved by the Brown County Board of Health, and it has been constructed to be flexible as conditions in our area change. Please remember that, like everything with the COVID 19 pandemic, things are changing at a rapid pace and what is built into this plan may look quite different in mid-August when the school year begins. Above all, please know the SHCTC is dedicated to keeping our students and staff as safe as possible, while at the same time providing the high quality career technical education you chose when you selected SHCTC. Please refer to our Facebook page or our website to read the plan.
Kevin Kratzer,
SHCTC Superintendent
