Shelton High School senior Craig Woodruff is the recipient of the H. Parry Jones Scholarship for 2011.

The scholarship is provided by the family of Parry Jones, who worked for many years in the grocery department of Lumbermans Mercantile of downtown Shelton during the early 1900's. Parry Jones had two daughters, Doris and Margery, who graduated from Irene S Reed High School in 1926 and 1930 respectively. Margery was the valedictorian of her class and later became a teacher. Parry's grandchildren attended and graduated from Shelton High School in the 1950's.

Craig is the son of Roger and Dawna Woodruff. Roger is a wildlife biologist with the USDA Wildlife Services. Dawna is a administrative assistant for the Mason County Treasurer's office.

Woodruffs cumulative GPA of 3.76 includes his college courses. Teachers describe him as adaptable, loyal, dependable, caring and conscientious.
