FIRST GEN STUDENT, DEDICATED TO COMMUNITY SERVICE

Francisco Ojeda is Envision Academy’s 2021 recipient of the Jackie Robinson Scholarship.

This award goes to one graduate each year who exemplifies Jackie Robinson’s commitment to community service. This year’s winner will be the first in his family to attend college. He has also dedicated much of his time during high school to serving his school and community in many ways. He has been a part of The Oakland Youth Advisory Commission, uses social media as a way to bring awareness to issues happening within the community, and he has served as a student leader for EA’s Latinos Unidos club. This fall he plans on attending UC Davis and majoring in Political Science. Congratulations Francisco Javier Ojeda!

ABOUT THE JACKIE ROBINSON SCHOLARSHIP

Each year, the Jackie Robinson Scholarship Award of $1000 is given to one graduate from each Envision school who exemplifies Jackie Robinson’s commitment to service and excellence. Mr. Robinson did more than break the color barrier in Major League Baseball: he was also the first in his family to graduate from college; he served his country in World War II; and he worked as a powerful civil rights advocate. To be awarded this scholarship, students must:

  • Be first in their family to go to college;
  • Deliver an outstanding graduation Portfolio and Defense;
  • Exemplify a commitment to service and leadership;
  • Plan on attending a 4-year college or university in the fall after graduation.
