The Sondra Brown Glenn Scholarship holds a deeply personal place in our hearts, honoring the life and legacy of a woman whose passion and purpose helped shape the foundation the Essential Genesis Learning Academy (EGLA). As a co-founder of EGLA in Central Arkansas, Sondra worked alongside Briona Slaughter and Carlous Benton with unwavering dedication, ensuring that the Academy operated with excellence and intention from its earliest days.

​

Sondra’s unexpected passing was a profound loss to all who knew her. Her wisdom, grace, and quiet strength left an indelible mark on our community. In her honor, we established this scholarship as a living tribute to her tireless efforts, her belief in education as a pathway to empowerment, and her commitment to nurturing the next generation.

​

Though EGLA has since closed its doors, the spirit of its mission endures through the Sondra Brown Glenn Scholarship. Each May, we award this scholarship to a graduating high school senior who embodies the values Sondra held dear: resilience, service, and the pursuit of knowledge. It is more than financial support; it is a symbol of a legacy that continues to inspire hope, excellence, and opportunity.
