Director, Lee Dow announced the 3rd recipient of the “Skye’s the Limit” Memorial Scholarship, selected by the Automotive Collision Advisory Board. Instructors, staff and students gathered around to celebrate Juan Parra during class. Juan is a second year student in Automotive Collision Repair and Refinishing.

 

The scholarship was established in memory of Skyê Charlton, graduate from the Automotive Collision Repair & Refinishing program at Moore Norman Technology Center. The $250 scholarship funds can be used to purchase tools, certifications, or for other academic purposes.

 

Post graduation, Skyê was diagnosed with stage 4 Rhabdomyosarcoma, a rare form of cancer. After an 18 month battle, Skyê passed away on August 17, 2023. She is fondly remembered for her love of art, antique trucks, classic hot rods, and music. Her legacy will continue to support MNTC students through this scholarship.
