Colorado Teacher Selected as 2015 Grosvenor Teacher Fellow

It is a big deal to be selected as a Grosvenor Teacher Fellow. Congratulations to Amy Austin from Boulder, CO on this exciting opportunity! Amy teaches at Centennial Middle School, and is also a recipient of a Japanese Fulbright Memorial Fund. 


"The Grosvenor Teacher Fellow (GTF) program is a professional development opportunity named in honor of Gilbert M. Grosvenor (pronounced GROHV-nur), Chairman Emeritus National Geographic Society and Education Foundation Board. This opportunity is designed to give current K-12 classroom teachers and informal educators from the 50 U.S. states, Canada, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico the opportunity to extend Grosvenor’s legacy of excellence in geographic education. Through the program, exemplary educators are recognized for their commitment to geographic education and are given the opportunity to be actively engaged in finding new ways to bring geographic awareness to their classrooms or informal learning environments through a field-based experience."
