Homer-Center Jr./ Sr. Highschool received $25,000 in the T-Mobile Friday Night 5G Lights Competition.
The award was announced Thursday afternoon at a presentation in the high school auditorium, which also celebrated the $5,000 award that the district had won earlier in the competition.
The Friday Night 5G Lights competition is a national community-building competition and grant program that supports small-town high school football programs and local schools across the United States.
Superintendent Ralph Cecere says that he was excited to learn about the $25k award.
Homer-Center is now one of 40 schools in the nation battling for the chance to receive $250,000 dollars.
Head Coach of the Homer-Center Wildcats Greg Page says that he knows they can put the money towards something that will help everyone.
