Held in Columbus today at the Center of Science and Industry
(COSI), three area students were presented with DP&L and
Vectren Energy Leadership Scholarships. Mark Lauterbach of Oakwood
High School; Thomas Muhlecke of Ponitz Career Technology Center;
and Katherine Hemm of Lehman Catholic High School will each receive
$1,000 toward college expenses.
Lauterbach plans to attend University of Dayton to study
mechanical and aerospace engineering. Muhlecke will attend
University of Nebraska - Lincoln and major in electrical
engineering. Hemm will major in business at Miami University of
Ohio.
The scholarships are a part of DP&L and Vectren’s School
Energy Education Program facilitated by OEP throughout the year.
Each year, DP&L teams with Vectren to hold an Energy Fair
teaching young people about energy efficiency through hands-on
sessions that allow high school students to mentor their younger
counterparts.
In addition, DP&L and Vectren have sponsored the Be E3 Smart
energy efficiency program since 2009. As a result, more than
60,000 energy efficiency kits have been sent home through the
classroom. This June DP&L is supporting the Activating and
Energizing Girls In Science energy bike building program for the
third year.
Two area teachers were also honored for their participation in
energy education. Scott Spohler from Madison Plains High School in
London received the DP&L Teacher Award and Amanda Runk from
Washington Court House Middle School was the recipient of the
Vectren Teacher Award. Both have participated in DP&L and
Vectren’s energy education programs.
