The Dr. John and Mary Martin Scholarship Fund was established to honor Dr. Martin and Mrs. Martin's service as educators. The fund shall provide scholarship assistance to support the college-going ambitions of graduating seniors of Grandview High School who aspire to teaching careers in the field of pre-K through grade 12 education. Preference shall be given to students who are underrepresented in their area of focus within the education field; for example, males of color in pre-school or elementary school. Students who receive this scholarship may reapply to be considered for renewal each year by the deadline. Applicants must submit two letters of recommendation, one from school professionals such as teachers, counselors or coaches; and one from a school professional. Please visit the scholarship's website or contact the Greater Kansas City Community Foundation for more information.
