Peter Maaske Memorial Scholarship

The Peter Maaske Memorial Scholarship was established in honor of Peter Maaske, an electronics teacher at South Garland High School for 15 years and at the Eastfield Campus for many years. The scholarship was established by Peter’s family to honor his legacy in teaching electronics and making a difference in the lives of his students. Peter was a creative man of many interests who loved his students, loved teaching, and loved the natural world and animals. His goal was making a difference in the lives of students and in the conditions of our world. The goal of this scholarship is to empower future generations to use electronics to improve the world. “What you leave behind is not what is engraved in stone monuments, but what is woven into the lives of others.” – Pericles
