The Mary Bullard Law Enforcement Memorial Scholarship is awarded to one High School Graduate that wishes to pursue a career in the Criminal Justice/Law Enforcement career field. Mary “KK” Bullard was a career law enforcement officer in Chattooga County for many years and passed away two years ago from a sudden illness. The family chose to honor her memory and her love for law enforcement and teaching by funding this scholarship.
