TitleTeaching Ambassador Fellowship
Body
From http://www.ed.gov/programs/teacherfellowship/programoverview.html

Teachers with successful strategies for increasing student achievement are encouraged to obtain principal support to apply for Teaching Ambassador Fellowship positions with the U.S. Department of Education through the Intergovernmental Personnel Act (IPA) for the 2008-2009 school year. Teachers will be chosen based upon their record of leadership, impact on student achievement, and potential for contribution to the field. All Fellows will complete a collaborative project to contribute to the field of education at the national level, and will be encouraged to work with their principals and with government liaisons throughout the year. The program offers two tracks: Classroom and Washington Fellows.

Classroom Fellows will serve their regular teaching contracts with their districts, and will be paid to perform additional Fellowship duties for the Department of Education.

Washington Fellows will serve as full-time federal employees in Washington, DC from the summer of 2008 through June 2009, placed in appropriate positions within the Department of Education to work on education program development and implementation.

Application deadline for both programs is April 7, 2008. For more information, go to http://www.ed.gov/programs/teacherfellowship/programoverview.html .
