Charles E. Johnson Memorial Scholarship

In 1989, Mississippi Retired Teachers Association (MRTA) established the MRTA Foundation, Inc.  The Foundation is to provide scholarships for selected students enrolled in a college teacher prep program.  In 2000, MRTA became the Retired Education Personnel of Mississippi (REPM), and in 2002, REPM named the scholarships awarded as the "Charles E. Johnson Memorial Scholarship".
