MOUNTAIN EMPIRE GETS MAGNET SCHOOL GRANT

A $25,552 grant again has been awarded to Mountain Empire Community College Governor's Magnet School by the National Science Foundation for this summer.

The four-week program is in mathematics and science for area high school students. The funding, under the foundation's Young Scholars Program, allows stipends to students who otherwise would have to hold summer jobs instead of participating, and financial assistance to teachers in the program.
