In return, the mentoring organization will give the school $500 to pay for the 10 scholarships Royle School is sponsoring for children in Nicaragua as part of the Norwalk/Nagarote Sister City Project.

The scholarships provide books, uniforms and supplies so that these children have an opportunity to attend school.

This service project will be integrated with the Spanish Program at Royle, as students will become pen-pals with the scholarship recipients.
