Since 2018, The Academy of Moore County and Roman Eagle Masonic Lodge 550 have established a Masonic Merit Scholarship to recognize fourth and fifth graders who have demonstrated academic progress during a term. There are eight winners per year, two per term, sharing the prizes.
On March 29, the awards were given to Malachi Ingram and Chase Williams.
