English Teacher Wins NEH Fellowship
English teacher, Cherise
Lopez, participated in a prestigious National Endowment for the Humanities fellowship over
the summer that took place in San Diego, California, titled "Empire of the
Winds". During the workshop, Ms. Lopez participated in various discussions
and lectures given by area professors that entailed learning about the
discovery of the western coast from a nautical, historical perspective. The
culmination of this experience ended with a lesson plan that Ms. Lopez created
that she plans to use in her AP Language & Composition course that has
students analyze visual rhetoric. This is the third fellowship Ms. Lopez has
been awarded through the National Endowment and she looks forward to applying
for future opportunities.
