LATM is pleased to honor the memory of Carol Meyer, an elementary school mathematics teacher who died unexpectedly at an early age. Carol loved mathematics and was a recipient of the Presidential Award for Excellence in Mathematics and Science Teaching. She was an outstanding math teacher and a fervent worker on the LATM executive board. She was always generous in sharing her love of math with her students and fellow teachers.

In Carol's memory, the Louisiana Association of Teachers of Mathematics is pleased to award a $500.00 scholarship each year to a high school senior who has expressed an interest in pursuing a career in mathematics or mathematics education. It is our hope that another future outstanding mathematics teacher or mathematician will be helped along the way by this award.

The submission period for 2011 is now closed. Please check back in 2012.
