The Scott Cooper Miami Scholarship is unique in the sense that it requires students to write essays that are thought-provoking and controversial.

MIAMI, FLORIDA, USA, March 24, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ — The Scott Cooper Scholarship is pleased to announce that Nicole Pinard is the latest award winner.

Nikki Pinard born and raised in the Pioneer Valley, Massachusetts. She attended UMass Amherst where she got a Bachelors’s degree in Sustainable Food and Farming.

Nikki will be attending Mount Holyoke College in the Summer of 2021 to earn her Master’s of Art in Teaching with a concentration in Middle School Science. Nikki hopes to incorporate her skills and knowledge from her farming degree into her middle school science classes.

“I would like to extend my deepest gratitude to The Scott Cooper Miami Scholarship. Returning to school for my Master’s in Teaching is a dream-come-true,” said Nicole Pinard, “No one before me in my family has completed a degree, therefore this support towards my Master’s couldn’t be more appreciated. Thank you for helping me pursue my dreams to impact my community and influence the next generation of young learners.”
