“As a devoted runner, I imagine life as a marathon, Heaven as my finish line, and a solid Catholic education as the strongest training plan,” reflects Teresa White, a homeschooled student from Illinois. White has been awarded the prestigious Newman Guide Scholarship, an honor given for the ninth consecutive year by The Cardinal Newman Society.
In her winning essay, White articulates how a robust Catholic education serves as essential preparation for both academic and spiritual journeys. She believes that the principles learned through this education not only equip students for worldly challenges but also guide them towards their ultimate goal of reaching Heaven.
White's commitment to her faith and education sets a powerful example for her peers, illustrating the profound impact that a values-based education can have on personal development. As she embarks on her next academic chapter, White hopes to inspire others to recognize the importance of integrating faith into their educational experiences.
