Three Addison Trail seniors named as recipients of Matthew E. DuPree Memorial Scholarship, established in honor of former Addison Trail social studies teacher

Addison Trail seniors Alicia Lloveras (pictured above, left), Madelyn Ford (pictured above, center) and Emma Walis (pictured above, right) were recently awarded the Matthew E. DuPree Memorial Scholarship.

Each student received a $2,000 scholarship in memory of former Addison Trail social studies teacher Matthew DuPree, who worked at District 88 for 32 years.

DuPree’s goal was to help and encourage students to pursue their life goals through the acquisition of knowledge and skills by furthering their education and attending college whenever possible. By providing this college scholarship award, DuPree’s wife and family hope his goal will live on.
