Gail Cope
Scholarships at State
In 2012, for the seventh consecutive year, retired German
teacher Gail Cope (formerly of W.T. White High School in Dallas) will generously
fund scholarships for the top winners at the Texas State German Contest.
Scholarship winners will be determined by the number of sweepstakes points the
students earn for their schools by winning first- through fifth-place awards.
Scholarships of $500, $400, $300, $200, and $100 will be awarded.
Each teacher may nominate one student per year for this
scholarship. The nomination process is quite simple, and teachers are
encouraged to participate in this wonderful program.
