From launching an ESL tutoring program for classmates to creating digital tools that support student learning, Krishna consistently finds ways to make an impact. His reach extends globally as well—leading a team that developed a data-driven agricultural solution through a United Nations–affiliated competition.
Krishna lives by the words, “You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take” – Wayne Gretzky, a mindset reflected in his initiative and drive.
In his own words, “I thank my family, friends, and mentors throughout my life—I would not have accomplished anything without their support and willingness to help me in my journey.”
We will honor Krishna on May 7th at the Woodstock High School Student Awards Ceremony.
Thank you to our scholarship selection committee—Scott Brix (Chair), Diana Frisbie, Dorothy Robin, Gene Wetzel, and Mike Crouch—for their thoughtful review and dedication to this process.
