RCEA Scholarship Fund
You have already seen a message from Lauren Strawderman about the RCEA Scholarship Fund, which is collecting donations now. Consider giving to this fund as it is used to help high school seniors, one from each of the Rockingham County High Schools, who are interested in pursuing a degree in education. With a donation of $5.00 you can honor a teacher who had an impact on you, one who is retiring from your school; or, give in memory of a teacher who has passed on. The RCEA Scholarship Committee includes Lauren Strawderman (JWES), Kishia Tutt (MMS) and Nancy Bassett (MMS). Lauren is collecting the donations. Please give and help the RCEA help future educators!

Thank you!
