About
After 35 years in dentistry, Jerry Clark retired and pursued his passion for teaching at the Unionville High School. Jerry also volunteered at the Kennett Square Library working in the bilingual program.
A scholar himself, Jerry was enthusiastic in presenting history, literature, and numerous other topics to students. His joy was infectious as he motivated and encouraged students to pursue their educations. Therefore, following his passing, it seemed fitting to offer a scholarship, in his name, to a deserving student graduating from Unionville High School and intent on continuing his or her education.
