Rosetta Stone Scholarship
The Rosetta Stone Scholarship is generously funded by Mr. and Mrs. Mike Meagher in memory of their granddaughter.
“Rosetta is a small town in northern Egypt. A piece of stone found there had a story written on it in 3 languages enabling us to decipher the ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs. Our granddaughter was named Rosetta Stone (2001-2004). This scholarship is in memory of her.
The purpose of this scholarship is to encourage a graduating student to get more education/training in a community college or trade school. The award is based on good character, involvement in high school, and community organizations, work experience, future plans, financial need, and a high school GPA of 2.4+.
If you receive and accept this scholarship, you also pledge to work hard at understanding each course, and plan to help someone else when you can. (“Pass it Along” Theory).”
Mike and Judy Meagher
