Cyril (Cy) Morgan is the legend behind our Cy Morgan Drafting and Design scholarship, awarded annually to students enrolled in senior drafting and design programs.
He has had a profoundly influential impact on the North Shore community through his over 33 years of teaching and mentoring.
Cy’s influence on Curtis was fundamental in Curtis’ abilities to create Synthesis Design Inc, and as a result, a scholarship in his mentor’s namesake was established to contribute to the community.
Cy’s passion and commitment to his students is forever reflected in the hundreds of students he taught, as well as now in the existence of Synthesis Design Inc.
The Cy Morgan Drafting and Design Scholarship serves to exemplify this commitment to excellence.
