Eight senior members of the Mount Pleasant High School Colorguard were awarded scholarships totaling $62,000 to The University of Arkansas at Monticello.  The scholarships would cover part of the tuition and fees at UAM and the students would perform as members of the UAM Colorguard.

Those receiving scholarships include Jorge Banda, Liz-Anel Bello, Leslie Caamal, Christian Cabrera, Katherine Lopez, Odalys Macedo, Linda Martinez, and Emily Rios.

“This is an exciting time in the Colorguard community as more and more schools are recruiting and offering scholarships to students with a guard background,” said MPHS Colorguard Director Marty Newman.  “I am thrilled that UAM has offered all MPHS Colorguard Senior members a scholarship.”
