By Angela Askey, Executive Director Public Relations and Marketing

Central Arizona College Signal Peak Campus student, Skyler Wyly, has been named a 2020 Coca-Cola Community College Academic Team Silver Scholar.

Wyly’s selection as a Coca-Cola Silver Scholar is based on the score he earned in the All-USA Community College Academic Team competition. Students are evaluated on their academic achievement, leadership, and engagement in college and community service.

The Coca-Cola Scholars Foundation sponsors the Coca-Cola Community College Academic Team program by recognizing 50 Gold, 50 Silver and 50 Bronze Scholars, and providing nearly $200,000 in scholarships annually. Each Silver Scholar receives a $1,250 scholarship and a special medallion.

The announcement of this prestigious award comes just a few weeks after Wyly was awarded First Team honors at the All-Arizona Academic Team Recognition Ceremony where he received a $1,000 scholarship

Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society administers the Coca-Cola Community College Academic Team Program. Student scholars will receive local, state and national recognition at Phi Theta Kappa’s annual convention scheduled for April 2-4, in Grapevine, Texas.
