Meet our third recipient of the 2026 BWXT STEM Scholarship Program, Noelle Shelton! Noelle is graduating this spring from Jefferson Forest High School, closing out her senior year with an incredible 4.42 GPA and a long list of achievements that reflect both drive and heart. This fall, she’ll head to the University of Tennessee, Knoxville to major in biology, with plans to continue her education on the path toward becoming a physician assistant. Noelle has made the most of her high‑school experience, balancing challenging coursework with leadership roles and meaningful extracurriculars. She has served as senior class vice president and class reporter, captained her cross‑country team, and expanded her academic experience at the Central Virginia Governor’s School.
