Mauricio is receiving almost an A average in all courses except for geometry, his toughest subject. He is also playing soccer on the Wawasee Prep soccer team. Family The mother of Mauricio is a secretary for a company in Managua. He has one younger sister who is 12 years old. Mauricio will not be able to visit his home for Christmas or Easter vacations because of the travel expense, but will spend these holidays with a cousin in Pittsburgh, or he can go to the home of another Wawasee Prep student. Mauricio is planning to spend his last three years of high school at the Prep. The scholarship fund will be able to finance about 50 per cent of the costs for these three years erf education. His mother is able to pay for his travel expenses and for school supplies and personal spending money. Mauricio himself has a job at Wawasee Prep which takes about 10-12 hours per week. The remaining educational costs will have to come from additional donors. When he has finished at Wawasee Prep, the youth hopes to attend college in this country. Likes Prep He said in an interview that he really likes Wawasee Prep because it is right next to a lake, and he likes the small classes of the school. He said the teachers at Wawasee Prep are “more with the students.” “They don’t just teach,” he said. Mauricio says that he misses his home but that he can live with this problem. He was sleeping in his home when the earthquake hit. The home was so badly damaged that it had to be demolished. While the earthquake was shaking his home, Mauricio helped his mother and little sister escape from the house. They spent the rest of the night in the street. In the morning they left for another dty, Rivas, to live with relatives. Mauricio was selected to be the recipient of the Nicaraguan scholarship because of his intelligence, his strong character and because of his own special need and desire to complete his high school education.
