Dr. Robert A. Gibson Scholarship for Teacher Education

Dr. Robert “Bob” A. Gibson was superintendent of Cecil County Public Schools from 1960 through 1971. During his tenure, the first county vocational-technical high school in Maryland opened; it is now known as the Cecil County School of Technology. Additionally, Bob introduced and guided legislation to allow the founding of Cecil Community College. Through these efforts, the college became a reality and opened its doors to students in 1968. The Dr. Robert A. Gibson Endowed Scholarship for Teacher Education was created by Bob’s wife Kay in memory of her husband’s enduring support of education.
