BRTC Awards Ken and Jan Ziegler Bridging the Gap Scholarship

Lesli Martinez of Rogers has been awarded the Ken and Jan Ziegler Bridging the Gap Scholarship made possible by funding from Ken and Jan Ziegler.

Martinez is a graduate of Pocahontas High School. She is the daughter of Sergio Martinez of Laredo, Texas, and Maria Martinez of Zacatecas, Mexico. She is seeking a degree in nursing.

The Ken and Jan Ziegler Bridging the Gap Scholarship was created to help close the gap for first-time-entering freshman students relying on loans or paying out-of-pocket.  This scholarship helps assist these students in completing their desired career certificate or degree by funding their tuition and fees each semester, provided the student maintains GPA and enrollment requirements.

Congratulations, Lesli!
