Thank you so much for awarding me an MRCC Scholarship again this year. I am extremely fortunate to have the support of Mountain Ridge as I take this next step in my education/career. I am happy to say that I have chosen to return to my alma mater, SUNY Oneonta, to complete my master's degree in literacy.

Thank you again for all of your support, both during my undergraduate career and now as I begin my graduate education. It truly is so appreciated.

Best,
Kate Bellman
