The 2026 Scholarship Program Recipients:
Libby Elmore – daughter of Simon Elmore, Senior Technical Representative with StructureCare, who joined High in 2020. Libby, a Cocalico High School graduate, distinguished herself as a leader in and out of the classroom. She served as Vice President of Student Government and the National Honor Society, while also excelling as a member of the varsity volleyball team, where she was named Cocalico’s Academic All-Star. In student government, Libby worked to strengthen school unity and student engagement. Her involvement also extended to the arts, where she starred in school musicals and contributed as a stage crew member. Her dedication to serving others is evident through her support in elementary classrooms and assistance with children’s programs at the Adamstown Library. Libby plans to study business marketing at Brigham Young University.

She demonstrated a deep commitment to helping others through community service and hands-on support for individuals with special needs. Her passion for service led her to shadow a speech therapist, gaining valuable insight into a profession that has become her calling. Much of her inspiration comes from her younger sister, who has Down Syndrome. Zamira plans to study Communication Sciences and Disorders at Penn State Harrisburg.
