Since 2004 Expeditionary Learning has partnered with Fund for Teachers (FFT), a non-profit organization that provides summer sabbatical opportunities to teachers. EL FFT fellows use this unique opportunity for endeavors such as conducting scientific or historical research, attending seminars or classes, or becoming a global volunteer. Fellowships are designed to help teachers improve their practice and make a positive impact on their students and communities by bringing their experience back into their classrooms. Expeditionary Learning teachers may receive up to $5,000 for individuals or $10,000 for team fellowships.

Applications were due January 27, 2012 and are now closed. Visit the Fund for Teachers website for more information.
