Programs described in its return (2)
- KAAE was able to provide two scholarships to student teachers who have since accepted positions in agriculture classrooms across the state. This is a significant accomplishment as supporting and developing new agriculture educators is critical to preventing programs from closing due to teacher shortages. By investing in future educators KAAE is helping ensure that agricultural education opportunities remain available for students throughout Kentucky.
- $1,500 spent. KAAE was able to provide quality professional development opportunities for teachers throughout the year through the implementation of New Teacher Workshops that addressed topics specifically designed for educators beginning their careers. This support helps ensure that young teachers are better prepared to successfully manage their classrooms develop effective instructional practices and build strong agricultural education programs.
