Scholarship Restoration Initiative 2025



We're working to restore our scholarships to pre-COVID levels and need your help! Due to financial constraints, we had to reduce 12 scholarships to $750 each, but our goal is to bring them back to $1,000. To make this happen, we must raise $3,000 before the scholarship distribution ceremony in May. Your support can directly impact—whether through a donation or purchasing tickets to our upcoming Mets game fundraiser. Every contribution helps us provide greater opportunities for deserving students. Click here for more information on buying tickets, and join us in making a difference! $10 from every ticket purchased goes directly to the W.C. Mepham High School Alumni Association! If you can't attend the game, please consider supporting us by directly donating.

Thank you from, The Board

Celebrating Our Students

Peter Udilovich

Published Science Research


We are truly excited to announce that Senior, Peter Udilovich's research study, titled "Antagonizing cis-regulatory elements of a conserved flowering gene mediate developmental robustness," has been published in the journal, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS). PNAS is a scientific journal that publishes original research and is one of the most-cited scientific journals in the world. Peter has been conducting his research in plant biology under the guidance of mentor Amy Lancott of the prestigious Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory. In layman's terms, Peter’s research looked at how specific “switches” near plant genes control flower development. In essence, this research provides valuable insights into the genetic mechanisms that drive plant development, paving the way for innovations that can benefit agriculture, biotechnology, and our understanding of the natural world. Throughout his entire high school career, Peter has participated in Mepham's Advanced Science Research program, under the guidance of Dr. Kommor. He is an exceptional student whose hard work and dedication have rightly earned him this prestigious recognition.
