The PEO Sisterhood was founded in 1869 at Iowa Wesleyan College in Mount Pleasant, IA, and provides educational opportunities for women nationwide.
Sullivan served as president of Love for Lotus, a club that supports women’s shelters, and as president of the Environmental Action Club.
She also founded and led Blue Water Keeper, a student-led initiative addressing microplastic pollution in South Florida.
“Brynne is a young woman of stellar achievement, outstanding leadership abilities and with a strong vision for the future,” said Patrick Roberts, head of school.
Sullivan will participate in a dual-degree program at the University of California, Berkeley, beginning this fall and plans to spend her first two years studying in France, pursuing a degree in political science and law, followed by two years completing a degree in society and environment. She hopes to pursue a career in policy development or international affairs, working with organizations such as the United Nations.
The PEO STAR Scholarship was established in 2009 to provide scholarships for exceptional high school senior women to attend an accredited post-secondary educational institution in the United States or Canada in the next academic year.
