HOUSTON – KPRC 2 and American Furniture Warehouse are surprising 20 deserving high school seniors with $2,500 scholarships in 2025. All students selected for scholarships have been nominated by their high schools.
Andrew Nsiah, a senior at Tomball Memorial High School, is the fourth recipient of the KPRC 2-American Furniture Warehouse Senior Scholarship from the Class of 2025. Tomball Memorial High School is part of the Tomball Independent School District.
Nsiah is a scholar athlete who served as Defensive Team Captain on the Tomball Memorial football team. He is also a member of the National Honor Society.
In his scholarship nomination essay, Nsiah talked about dedication to his community that led him to create his nonprofit organization Syntax4Stars. “When I was 14, I developed a portable game for children in my local hospital with the hope that I could entertain them during their extended stays. Sparking my interest in computer engineering, the project was fueled by my desire to use my knowledge of computers to make a positive impact on my community.” Through Syntax4Stars, Nsiah mentors Black students to grow their interest in STEM topics and Computer Engineering.
Nsiah will purse a degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering at The University of Texas in Austin this fall.
