For over 60 years, The Mattapoisett Woman’s Club has been striving to help young people in their educational pursuits. This year, the Club is happy to award four scholarships to students from Old Rochester Regional High School.
The selected students are: Amanda Carreiro, daughter of Anne and Jeff Carreiro. Amanda will attend Northeastern University to pursue a career in medicine or literature. Callie Gomes, daughter of Bethany Ratcliffe and Stephen Gomes. Callie plans to study nursing at UMass Dartmouth. Elizabeth Machado, daughter of Jane Finnerty and James Machado. Elizabeth hopes to become an elementary education teacher and will attend Endicott College. Robert Magee, son of Paul and Mary Magee. Robert is looking forward to a career in pharmacy and will attend Wingate University.
All four students possess excellent academic achievements, have done multiple community service tasks, and have participated in several extracurricular activities.
The Mattapoisett Woman’s Club especially thanks the community for its support of our Garden Tour and “Taste of the Town” (during Harbor Days). These fund raising activities make our scholarships possible. Congratulations to Amanda Carrier, Callie Gomes, Elizabeth Machado, and Robert Magee!
