Illinois Wesleyan University alumna Kathryn Seibring was selected this past June as one of the first 50 Woodrow Wilson New Jersey Teaching Fellows, a competitive teacher training program through the Woodrow Wilson National Fellowship Foundation of Princeton, New Jersey. According to a recent article published about Seibring’s success, the fellowship program “recruits both recent graduates and career changers with strong backgrounds in science, technology, engineering and math — the STEM fields — and prepares them specifically to teach in high-need secondary schools.” Seibring will receive $30,000 to complete a specially designed master’s program based on a yearlong classroom experience and apply what she learns through through teaching at New Jersey schools in need of STEM teachers.
