One student from each school also received a $1,000 scholarship for the college of their choice. The Mater Dei seniors in attendance included: Lauren Ahola, Brody Baumann, Kate Breeden, Allison Griese, Julie Heldman, Kate Herrmann, Alyssa Kempf, Sophia Kleiman, Isabelle Koch, Madeline Rentchler, Nathan Schneider, Calvin Stratman, Ryan VanBibber, Kennedy Wenger, and Morgan Wilmes.
