NEWS for Scholarship Recipients
Scholarship Funds Expended. The Title II funds that
were appropriated by the U.S. Department of Education to the Partnership
for the purpose of scholarships are now all expended.
Best wishes to all whose opportunities for academic study have been
made possible by this program.
Notification of Employment, Post-6 Months
As scholarship recipients know, once the teacher preparation
program has been completed, and no additional Title II funds are
requested by the teacher education participang, the scholarship
recipient should be teaching in a high need school within six months.
That information should be reported on the verification
form found at the bottom of the "Obligations for Scholarship
Recipients" subpage under "scholarship guidelines" of this website.
Scholarship recipients should complete the 1st block of information,
then the Principal should complete and return the form to the US
Department of Education, according to the instructions on the cover
page of the form. If a person has completed the teacher
preparation program and has found a job that does not begin until
more than six months following completion of the program, that information
should be communicated to the US Department of Education.
If a person is still seeking employment, a letter to the US Department
of Education should be sent to relay a list of interviews held,
applications sent, and any additional information that explains
activities of the six months passing.
The letter should be sent to:
Karen Gough, Title II Grants
US. Department of Education
1990 K Street NW # 6150
Washington, DC 20006-8525
Tel: 202-502-7663
E-mail: Karen.Gough@ed.gov
Also, please inform the Partnership Office of your place of employment!
We want to know how we are making a difference and where we have
not supported scholarship recipients.
