Several Miss America’s Outstanding Teen contestants accepted the challenge to set up a Mentor Club in their hometowns as part of the Dream Academy’s national platform. We are very proud of their individual commitment to enlist their peers and teachers in developing their Mentor Clubs.

After reading the essays, looking at photos and reviewing the peer evaluations, we are honored to announce the winners of the 2008 Mentor Club Scholarships. These teens have shown by their actions a commitment to service by giving one hour per week during the school year to help children who are struggling in the classroom. The testimonies of parents and teachers are compelling evidence that even a small amount of time can make a tremendous difference in the life of a child.

The winner of the first place $3000 scholarship is Jasmine Murray, Miss Mississippi’s Outstanding Teen 2007.

The second place $2000 scholarship is awarded to Miss North Dakota’s Outstanding Teen 2007, Andrea Berglund.

These two contestants will also receive a trip back to Orlando to be honored in the Saturday night finals. They will receive room accommodations and will be introduced on stage.
