Ogdensburg – The Society of the United Helpers recently granted three high school seniors the Helen S. Randles Scholarship Award. Megan Barney, of Madrid-Waddington Central School; Aubrey Czajkowski of Massena Central School; and Amanda L. LaRue of Ogdensburg Free Academy.
These scholarships are made possible through the generous donation of an endowment by Helen S. Randles.
