What Students Are Saying
鈥淏eing awarded the Trooper Andrew 鈥淎J鈥� Sperr Memorial Scholarship was really overwhelming for me. This scholarship is going to help me by making me feel more confident in my schooling, because I can now focus on school without having the stress of money behind me constantly. After CCC, my plans consist of pursuing a dual degree in Mathematics and Environmental Science at a four-year school. I am super grateful for the chance to have a scholarship.鈥�
