Scholarship opportunities for teachers

The Alabama Education Retirees Foundation currently funds nine $1000 scholarships under the Elementary/Secondary Education Scholarship Program. The goal of this scholarship program is to provide onetime scholarships for educators who are currently employed in a state public school system (K-12).

Scholarship recipients will receive training in areas of counseling, mathematics, science, computer education, library media, special education, English as a second language, or other specialized areas where a proven need exists. The deadline for applying for these scholarships is January 18, 2007.

Should you know of anyone working in the K-12 system that might be interested, please e-mail Cindy Entrekin . She will forward information to them.
