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.
