Kelli Wyatt ‘97
, is all about giving back to her community. She graduated from Millersville University with a
degree in Elementary Education
,
ready to take on her role in the classroom.
As an educator with a passion for empowering kids, seeing the way the COVID-19 pandemic affected high school seniors tugged on her heartstrings.
Wyatt created a private Facebook group called
“Adopt A High School Senior 2020 - Let's Celebrate Them,
"
where parents posted photos of their high school seniors and people in the group reached out to “adopt” them, purchasing gifts, sending cards, money, well-wishes and more. The group took off almost immediately, racking up approximately 3,000 members within the first week alone. The scholarship fund is still going strong. To date, it has raised more than $35,000.

Admissions Offers Modified On-Campus Tours

Tours will be conducted primarily outdoors with a walk through campus. The group will enter one academic building and one residence hall room to minimize contact. These spaces will be cleaned and disinfected between tours.
