Brittany Roundtree
Brittany Roundtree is a Science teacher at Donovan Middle School in the Utica City School District. She has been at Donovan for three years and has made a tremendous impact on her students. Along with teaching, she tutors and mentors students in STEM after school in hopes that someday, some of them will enter the fields of science, technology, engineering, or math. It does not get much better than having a teacher extend herself and expose us to further knowledge connected to the real world. Brittany is an inspiring educator as she is the only African American science teacher in the Utica City School District. Prior to teaching science, Brittany earned the honor of a master’s in business administration from Wilmonton University.

Presidential Scholarships | Full Tuition
The Presidential Scholarship is the highest honor and largest scholarship available at Briar Cliff University. Scholars awarded will receive compensation for the full cost of their Briar Cliff tuition for all four years (8 semesters). Each year, the scholarship is awarded to four incoming undergraduate students who have exemplified academic excellence, outstanding contributions to their community, and extraordinary leadership thus far in their education careers. We believe a demonstrated strong work ethic, along with a willingness to contribute and learn, is a positive indication of an individual’s ability to further develop leadership skills, while also contributing to our campus culture.
