Curt Ehrenstrom '79 Memorial Scholarship
The Curt Ehrenstrom, '79 Memorial Scholarship was established in memory of Coach "E" a longtime teacher, coach and mentor to thousands of young men that walked the halls at 64th and Dante.
Coach "E" loved Mount Carmel, whether it was teaching physics, coaching football or coaching water polo, he put his heart and soul into bringing out the best in his students and players.
A colleague said this about Coach "E"
“In teaching Physics, Coach E manages to seize the imagination of his students like a superior novel might, and like a symphony conductor, he teaches students to savor the harmonies of the principles of Physics. He exposes students to the conundrums of problems and problem-solving experiences like studying a new philosophy might pose. He is a humanist in a lab coat, and that’s why he succeeds.”

This scholarship was established to help provide financial support to a deserving young man who needs financial assistance to be able to attend Mount Carmel.
