Thalia Murray Scholarship
This scholarship is offered in memory of and to honor Mrs.Thalia Murray, who taught in the SD Unified School System for 20 years, including 17 years at Marcy Elementary (now Mission Bay Montessori) in UC. She received a scholarship that allowed her to attend a high-quality, 4-year college, which dramatically changed her life for the better. By working closely with a committee comprised of key EdUCate Board members, our goal is for this Scholarship to have a similar impact. This Scholarship is awarded each year to one eligible Senior at University City High School in the total amount of $2,000.00.
