Media Specialist Receives National Recognition
Kate Cummings, media specialist at Grimsley High School, has been selected from a national applicant pool to attend one of 21 summer study opportunities supported by the National Endowment for the Humanities. The Endowment is a federal agency that each summer supports seminars and institutes at colleges and universities so that teachers can study with experts in humanities disciplines.
Kate will participate in an institute entitled "Living and Being Chinese: Geographic and Ethnic Diversity in China." The four-week program will be held at Columbia University in New York City and directed by The China Institute.
The 30 teachers selected to participate in the program each receive a stipend to cover their travel, study and living expenses.
