Hello! The Ramirez Family is thrilled to invite you to join us in celebrating the incredible legacy of Lina Vela Ramirez through the establishment of the 2025 Lina Vela Ramirez Memorial Scholarship. This year holds special significance as we commemorate the 50th anniversary of Lina's graduation from Freer High School, where she left an indelible mark on the community.

Lina's high school years were filled with numerous accomplishments and accolades, as she excelled academically, was crowned Homecoming Queen, and was honored as Band Sweetheart. Her leadership abilities were evident as she served as the president of the Catholic student organization and was a dedicated member of the Junior ROTC. These experiences laid the foundation for her future success and demonstrated her commitment to serving others.

As a trailblazing first-generation college student, Lina overcame significant barriers to achieve her academic goals. She earned her bachelor's degree in Psychology from Texas A&I-Kingsville and went on to complete her master's in Education at East Texas State University-Commerce. Her determination and passion for learning served as an inspiration to all who knew her.

Lina's impact extended far beyond the classroom, as she dedicated her career to the field of education. As a counselor, teacher, and education director, she touched the lives of countless students, leaving a lasting impression on each individual she encountered. Her unwavering dedication to fostering a love of learning and providing support to future generations exemplifies the heart of this scholarship.

With your generous support, the 2025 Lina Vela Ramirez Memorial Scholarship will provide critical assistance to a deserving college-bound senior from Freer High School.
