Three sisters
Scholarship will support teachers in early childhood education
It’s not surprising that sisters Mona, Camilla, and JoEllen Langguth all attended the University of Minnesota. As children, the three lived next door to Memorial Stadium, with a popcorn wagon parked in their front yard during home football games. Mona and Camilla, only 16 months apart, cherish memories of attending the Shirley G. Moore Laboratory School. Learn more about the Langguth Sisters Scholarship to support students preparing to become early childhood education teachers.
