Raymond Lau has been awarded the 2015 Osness Scholarship from the Greater Kent Historical Society.

Lau will receive $950 toward his first year at the University of Washington as he pursues a degree in communications.

Lau, a 2015 graduate of Kentridge High School, excelled in numerous Advanced Placement classes. He was vice president of the associated student body while also captaining the judo team.

The Osness Scholarship is in memory of longtime Kent residents Ralph L. & Elinor J. Osness.

For the last few years, it has been awarded by the GKHS to a graduating senior of the Kent School District who plans to attend college the following year.
