This award was established by the Gladstone family in 2020, in gratitude for and honor of Marita Williams and Kelly Clarke, two Lower Merion Special Education teachers who both made a special impact on their student, Seth Gladstone, and his entire family. This scholarship recognizes Williams and Clarke, as well as their colleagues in LMSD’s Special Education department, for the invaluable work they do helping their students maximize their ability. This scholarship is intended to support graduates who plan to pursue a career in special education, general education or have meaningfully participated in organizations such as Best Buddies or Special Olympics.
