Providence Catholic High School has announced that senior William Sullivan has been awarded the Villanova University Augustinian High School Scholarship. This scholarship is a full-tuition academic award renewable for four years. It is given to a select group of incoming students from Augustinian-affiliated schools who demonstrate exceptional academic achievement and embody the core values of truth, unity, and love.
Villanova University aims to honor its Augustinian heritage by recognizing students who reflect these values in their academic and personal lives. William Sullivan, who graduated from Peotone Junior High School and is the son of Mike and Kathy Sullivan, plans to attend Villanova University this fall to study Biology with a minor in Economics.
During his time at Providence Catholic, William earned several academic honors. As a sophomore, he received an award for Chemistry Honors. In his junior year, he was recognized with awards in Church History and as an AP Scholar with Honor, along with receiving the Seal of Biliteracy in Spanish. In his senior year, he received the Celtic Award in Soccer. He has also been named an Illinois State Scholar and is a member of both the National Honor Society and Spanish National Honor Society.
Outside academics, William actively participated in various school activities. He was part of the Math Team for all four years; this year they placed ninth at state level. He also joined the Mock Trial team, Scholastic Bowl team, and Habitat for Humanity. Additionally, he played on the school's volleyball team throughout high school and was on the soccer team from his sophomore through senior years.
Providence Catholic extends its congratulations to William on this achievement and wishes him success as he continues his education at Villanova University while carrying forward his academic excellence and Augustinian spirit.
