Glenville State College is about to roll out a new full scholarship (100% tuition, room & board) to any HS student interested in teaching, particularly those interested in subject areas most in demand (i.e., math, science, special education, early childhood). The Program is titled Home Grown and is being implemented for the sole purpose of addressing WV's teacher shortage. I have attached a brief description and GSC representatives will join us during an upcoming counselor meeting to provide a program brochure and additional details.
This would be an excellent opportunity for any of our/your students who:
- Have an interest in teaching and planning on a BA in Education
- Have expressed an interest in Glenville State College
- Wish to attend college but simply cannot afford it
- Have an interest in becoming a future school counselor…who could obtain a free undergrad at GSC in Edu, before an MA in School Counseling
- Student athlete in your building who may want to consider playing college sports at GSC, and who has an interest in teaching/coaching.
