The Goddard School Announces Recipient of the Anthony A. Martino Memorial Scholarship

    KING OF PRUSSIA, PA, June 10, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The Goddard School , the premier preschool focusing on learning through play for children from six weeks to six years old, proudly announces Haley Malloy of Henrico, VA as the winner of the 7th annual Anthony A. Martino Memorial Scholarship. The scholarship is open nationally to any seniors in high school who have graduated from The Goddard School Pre-K or Kindergarten program, and is awarded to one applicant who has demonstrated the work ethic and perseverance that exemplified Anthony A. Martino, the founder of The Goddard School franchise system.

Haley graduated from the Pre-K program at The Goddard School located in Henrico, VA in 2002, and credits much of her academic success and career path to her early experiences at The Goddard School. Having already made the decision to attend Texas Christian University, Haley will be pursuing a degree in early education when she begins college this fall. Katrina David and Matthew Newman who attended The Goddard School located in Sayreville, NJ and Montgomeryville, PA respectively, were selected as finalists for the scholarship.

"The Anthony A. Martino Memorial Scholarship provides us with a way to continue supporting our students long after they have left our schools," said Joe Schumacher, CEO of Goddard Systems, Inc. "We aim for our students to be fully-prepared, confident learners when they leave our schools, and we are delighted to help lessen the financial burden of college for these promising young adults so they can focus on their academic journey."

The Goddard School has awarded more than $70,000 to its alumni through the Anthony A. Martino Memorial Scholarship program, and that number will continue to grow as more and more former students prepare for the leap into college.
