Each year, we award approximately 35 Fellowships to early-career high school biology, chemistry, physics and mathematics teachers. Through our
signature program, we support our Fellows in their efforts to develop teaching expertise and lead from the classroom.
Knowles Teaching Fellows receive mentoring and coaching from a staff of experienced teachers and teacher educators, financial support, and membership in a nationwide
community of more than 450 mathematics and science educators.
To be eligible for a Knowles Teaching Fellowship, applicants must:
-
have the capacity and determination to commit to teaching as their primary career;
-
have earned a degree in a major related to the mathematics or science discipline they intend to teach between 2011 and September 1, 2021;
-
have earned or will earn a valid state teaching credential/certificate/license that enables them to teach mathematics or science in grades 9–12 in the United States no earlier
than January 1, 2016 and no later than September 1, 2021; and
-
be entering their first or second year as teacher of record during the 2021–2022 academic year.
* For the purpose of eligibility, we consider an applicant’s first year of teaching to be the first year in which
they teach full time for the full academic year as the teacher-of-record.
The deadline to submit all application materials is 11:59 pm PST on January 18, 2021. Thank you in advance
for your help with recruiting applicants for the Knowles Teaching Fellows Program.
