The Lowell Milken Center for Unsung Heroes is hosting five award-winning educators from across the nation for a week-long fellowship.
During the fellowship, teachers share pedagogical strategies for facilitating project-based learning through unsung heroes.
They will explore Fort Scott with visits to The Fort Scott National Historic Site, City Hall, Kiwanis Club, Gordon Parks Center, LaRoche Baseball Complex, and downtown shops and restaurants.
A highlight of the Fellowship is a video conference with Lowell Milken. The teachers begin the process of an unsung hero project, which will be concluded the following school year with their students.
