This summer, 43 Oklahoma teachers embarked on self-designed learning odysseys as scholars, researchers, adventurers and Fund for Teachers Fellows. After pursuing scientific data, participating in seminars, volunteering with community organizations and observing best practices, these teachers returned to their classrooms as lead learners to inspire their students and school communities.

Since 2006, the program has awarded $2.7 million in grants to benefit 769 Oklahoma teachers.
