The Rogers Scholars Program is “Helping Students Build a Future They’re Proud Of.” This summer, 100 high school students from 45 Kentucky counties will begin that journey by developing their leadership skills as the region’s next generation of business and entrepreneurial leaders.
Students from Southern and Eastern Kentucky – all rising high school juniors – have been selected by The Center for Rural Development to represent their home counties as members of the 2026 Class of Rogers Scholars.
Local Students include…
Adair County
Sallie Ballou
Ty Coleman
Ashley Loy

Congratulations to these students from 92.7 the WAVE…
