All Vermont middle and secondary grade teachers are warmly invited to submit a proposal for a Rowland Fellowship. To be eligible, teachers must currently be teaching in a Vermont school and working directly with students on a daily basis. This includes Vermont teachers practicing in the secondary and middle grades in all subject areas, as well as special educators, guidance counselors, mental health counselors, or healthcare professionals who are full-time staff at a Vermont school. Schools with a Rowland Fellow currently in the two-year cohort cycle are not eligible to apply.

Administrators, coordinators, and instructional coaches are not eligible to apply. Schools with a Rowland Fellow currently in the two-year cohort cycle are also ineligible. The Rowland Foundation accepts proposals only from Vermont schools that 1) are eligible for public funding, and 2) do not have selective admissions. The Rowland Foundation’s selection process does not discriminate on the basis of race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identification, language, (dis)ability, or national origin.

Before the meeting, we recommend that you review:
- Fellowship Eligibility Criteria
- Our Application Guidelines

We look forward to answering your questions!
