Student Stories
"I wouldn't be where I am without MOST, so thank you so much!"
-Shunise Bledsoe, 2010 MOST Graduate, currently attending Vanderbilt University
Parent Stories
"We decided way back in 1991 that our children would get the best educations we could provide. As products ourselves of Catholic schools, and with a strong Catholic faith, our choice of schools was apparent. Paying for it has been another matter, however. We both work full-time with occasional weekend jobs as well. That's where MOST comes in to take some of the strain off of the family budget. I know for certain that our lives would be more difficult without MOST. We still pinch pennies to make it, but with MOST we just don't have to squeeze quite so hard!"
-Matthew and Martha Cummings, Parents of six MOST scholars
Donor Stories
"I believe in MOST because a good education gives an individual the ability to lead an independent, self-reliant life."
-Tom Whitman, MOST Board Member and Donor
School Stories
"Our school has benefitted so much from MOST. Because of this scholarship, we are able to open our doors to families who are struggling economically, but are willing to make any sacrifice for their children's education."
-Brother Alan Parham, Assistant Principal, Resurrection Catholic School
