LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – Students are encouraged to apply for a four-week residential program for talented and motivated students completing grades eight through 12.
The COSMOS program allows students to reside on one of the four University of California (UC) campuses while they explore advanced topics in science, technology, engineering and math through a hands-on and lab-intensive curriculum.
Each of the four UC campuses can only accommodate approximately 160 participants so selection is competitive.
A typical student has a least a 3.5 grade point average and will need the recommendation of a math and/or science teacher.
Applications are due prior to Feb. 22.
For more information, visit the UC COSMOS Web site at http://cosmos-ucop.ucdavis.edu/main/overview or contact Tammy Serpa at the Lake County Office of Education College-Going Initiative Department at

LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – The Lake County Association of Realtors Scholarship Committee takes pride in raising funds annually which are disbursed in $1,000 increments to all five local high schools.
Here is a list of the student senior recipients in 2012:
- Denise Jimenez Tapia, Clear Lake High School;
- Krystina Riccio, Middletown High School;
- Cory Johnson, Kelseyville High School;
- Katelynn Meade-Malley, Lower Lake High School;
- Jordan Austin, Upper Lake High School.
Because of generous items donated by local merchants, the association is able to hold a silent auction at its December installation dinner.
Later in the year, yard sale items which are accumulated throughout the year are brought out for sale the last weekend in April at Noble Realty in Upper Lake. This is a huge event you won’t want to miss.
You can call Kayln Noble at 707-275-0115 or Jacie Casteel at Sterling Mortgage 707-263-5142 if you would like to donate usable items. Pickup can be arranged.
The association wishes Leslie Kirchner, C-21 Middletown, a warm bon voyage, as she leaves the Lake County real estate industry after a successful career. Her tireless efforts were extremely influential for years in raising scholarship money annually.
