Sheriff Bobby Webre announced that Delaney Inabnet, a student at St. Amant High School has been named the recipient of a $500 academic scholarship from the Louisiana Sheriffs’ Scholarship Program for the 2018-2019 school year.

The Sheriff’s Scholarship is made possible by the Louisiana Sheriffs’ Honorary Membership Program (LSHMP). Louisiana Sheriffs’ provide scholarships to graduating high school seniors from each parish where the Sheriff is an affiliate of the Program.

Qualities such as academic achievement, leadership and character are considered in making selections of Sheriffs’ scholarship recipients. The only limitations are that applicants be permanent residents of Louisiana; scholarships be utilized in higher education within the State; and students be enrolled as fulltime, undergraduate students. Scholarships will be awarded in sixty-three parishes throughout the state.

“This is one of our finest accomplishments that invests in Louisiana’s future and gives something back to our community,” said Sheriff Webre. “This would not be possible without the kind and generous support of Ascension Parish’s Honorary Members of the Louisiana Sheriff’s Association.”
