The MWC Scholarship Committee is pleased to announce that Mattapoisett residents Rylie Coughlin and Jaymison Gunschel are the winners of the 2024 MWC scholarships awarded to graduating high school seniors. Rosemary Williams is the recipient of the continuing education scholarship, reserved for a Mattapoisett resident who is re-entering the academic world in pursuit of a postsecondary degree or certification.
Rylie is a 2024 graduate from ORR High School. She plans to attend the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth and will be majoring in English. Jaymison is also a 2024 graduate from ORR High School. He plans to attend American University in Washington, D.C. with a major in Political Science. Both students were standout candidates based on their community involvement, commitment to volunteerism, academics and future aspirations.
Rosemary is currently attending Simmons University working towards a master’s degree in social work. She is entering her final semester and will be finishing her degree this December. She is a mother of 3 and a certified music therapist.
