Annie Mitchell 2019 Scholorship Recipient

Perla Marilu Avila-Montoya

Hello, I am Perla, the recipient of this year's Annie R. Mitchell Scholarship.  I am beyond thankful for receiving this scholarship.  I am majoring education to be a 6th grade teacher, transferring to Fresno State in the fall.  I was inspired to be a teacher because when I was a Scicon counselor in high school, I loved working with the 6th graders.  Also, when I started in the Mini Corps Program through COS I knew the right path.  Through this program I was placed at a school and worked tutoring migrant students.  Just watching students grow and improve throughout the school year and knowing that the kids were able to reach their goals.
