Mr. Rodriguez surprised Nula and Ryan during their advisory period on March 14th with OSU Presidential Scholarships. Neah-Kah-Nie staff and students are extremely proud of Nula and Ryan for working so hard for so many years. 800+ applicants and 89 scholarships awarded, Neah-Kah-Nie HS with two of the awards.
