Gilinski Hillel Ambassadors Named for 2016-17

Scheck Hillel Community School is honored to announce the 2016-17 Jaime and Raquel Gilinski Hillel Ambassadors: outstanding students who exemplify leadership and achieve in academics, extracurricular activities or service learning. They represent the school’s values, striving to reach their maximum potential as lifelong learners, and stand tall among our next generation of committed, knowledgeable leaders. The Jaime and Raquel Gilinski Hillel Ambassador Program is Scheck Hillel’s first merit-based scholarship of its kind.

While Scheck Hillel is blessed and proud to have so many talented, accomplished students, the number of Ambassadors for each year is limited. Only 10 of the record nearly 80 students who participated in the rigorous application process were named Ambassadors. The application required students to write an essay, produce a video and formulate a resume. Finalists advanced to the second phase and also completed a panel interview. 

In recognition of their achievement and with great appreciation for the Gilinski family, mazal tov to this eighth generation of Ambassadors! Visit eHillel.org to learn more about the Gilinski Hillel Ambassador Program.
