Two RUSD students named Gates Millenium Scholars

RUSD is home to two distinguished Gates Millennium scholars, Anthony Calvillo (King High School) and Karen Figueroa (Ramona High School). Both are AVID students. Anthony participated in the Project Lead the Way program and will be studying engineering at UC Riverside. Karen Figueroa spent two summers completing a biomedical internship at Loma Linda University and will attend UCLA to pursue the pre-medical field. The Gates Millennium scholarship may be used within 10 years to support the full costs of their undergraduate and graduate education. It is awarded to the most extraordinary students based upon exceptional leadership, community service and academic achievements. Anthony’s and Karen’s accomplishments are especially notable considering there were more than 54,000 seniors who had applied, making it the largest and most competitive group of candidates in the program’s history. Only 1,000 Gates Millennium Scholars are selected nationwide each year. The odds of winning this prestigious scholarship are less than 2%. Congratulations Anthony and Karen!
