Description
The History-Social Science Teacher Preparation BA degree is a state-of-the-art degree program preparing middle and high school History teachers working in California's public schools. Your donation will establish a first-ever scholarship at CSUEB to promising future History educators in California's middle or high schools! These future teachers will begin their careers with less college debt and less stress around their post-graduate finances.
Make an impact!
Making the decision to become a middle or high school History teacher is not an easy one today. Future teachers will benefit from this new scholarship through the investment in their education. Providing a scholarship award also lets our future History educators know that their work and excellence matters.
The benefits of this scholarship will live on, well past our graduates' time in college. This is because our History-Social Science Teacher Preparation graduates play a crucial role in our communities and civic life by helping young people become thoughtful, engaged citizens through a study of the past.
Why are donations necessary?
Many of our future teachers are First Generation college students and even with federal or state grants, they are still working hard to pay living expenses. Every $20 they receive in scholarship funding is an hour they can study instead of work. With this scholarship support, these future educators can grow into superb middle or high school History teachers, thereby influencing generations of students to come!
