Kylie Conn and Teryn Spicer, both 2026 Caddo High School graduates, have been selected as this year’s recipients of the Anita Jeanette Engles Memorial Scholarship.
Conn will be attending Southeastern Oklahoma State and Spicer will be continuing his education at Oklahoma State Institute of Technology in the fall. Both were heavily involved with FFA and community activism during their high school careers.
Engles was a 1956 honor graduate of Caddo High School. After her death in September of 2020, her family created a scholarship fund to honor her memory and legacy as a professional educator. She retired from Southeastern Oklahoma State University as a tenured professor and distinguished faculty member of the Education and Psychology Department.
The Anita Jeanette Engles Foundation is a nonprofit organization with the sole purpose to assist Caddo High School graduates in their education through college or technical school. As a high school teacher and college professor for more than 30 years, Engles provided guidance and was a positive influence to countless students. Her own experience at Caddo High School and the lifetime friends she made inspired her family and friends to create this scholarship fund.
