Dr. Stana Michael was an exemplary school psychologist who served students and the profession in a thoughtful manner. She was also involved in the early organization of the Indiana Association of School Psychologists (IASP). In 1997, the Stana Michael Scholarship fund was established by Dr. George Batsche, former president of the National Association of School Psychologists (NASP), who had worked with Dr. Michael.

Today the fund is primarily supported by Dr. Michael’s children and family, and by contributions from IASP members. The Dr. Mary Lynne Slonaker Memorial Scholarship was established in 2018 in memory of her service to children and families as well as her dedication to the profession of school psychology for more than 40 years.

Dr. Slonaker started her career as a teacher and incorporated this perspective into her service as a school psychologist. She was well known for her expertise in autism, moderate to severe disabilities, and the preschool population. Her dedication and professionalism in the field provided a worthy example for many school psychology students and interns under her supervision throughout her career.

Projections for the future also indicate a continued trend toward greater diversity. It is therefore in the best practices of school psychology that we as a profession seek to employ persons with the skills necessary to meet these needs. Presently, there are not proportionate numbers of properly skilled practitioners to meet this growing need.

Statistics also indicate that the future will continue to call for more culturally and linguistically diverse school psychologists. This scholarship will assist in the recruitment of qualified minority school psychologists and assist training programs with recruitment of minority students.
