The
awarded Title II Teacher Quality Enhancement Recruitment Grant will
result in changes in the recruitment, retention, teacher education
programs, classroom practice of K-12 teachers, and the induction of
novice teachers in central western Pennsylvania. One main
component of this grant will be the recruitment of minority teacher
candidates at Slippery Rock University of Pennsylvania. The
targeted candidates will be senior level high school students from
Farrell Area School District, New Castle School District, Sharon
City School District, and the Youngstown, Ohio School
District. These students will be pursuing a degree in
education including elementary, physical, secondary, or special
education. The minority students from these school districts
may have otherwise never applied for admission to Slippery Rock due
to financial considerations. The qualifying recipients
of the TQE-R grant will receive full tuition, room and board, and
fees through the third year that the grant is in effect with the
possibility of reapplication and potential subsequent renewal for
an additional three years. The students applying for the
scholarship will be required to possess two of the three following
requirements: QPA of 3.0 or higher, class rank of 25% or higher, or
an SAT 930/ACT 19-20 or higher. This is a unique opportunity
for these students as well as for the student population of
Slippery Rock University. |
