Teacher Fellowship

Women of the Shoah Teacher Fellowship

The Women of the Shoah Teacher Fellowship provides comprehensive Holocaust education training to North Carolina middle and high school educators. We fund intensive professional development sessions where teachers learn our specialized curriculum that connects the monument's story to classroom instruction.

After implementing this curriculum with their students, each teacher brings their class to visit the monument. We fund these student visits, covering transportation and substitute teacher costs. Students experience guided tours with our trained docents and hear from local Holocaust survivors, as well as 2nd- and 3rd-generation survivors.

Our fellowship currently includes 116 teacher fellows from 51 counties across North Carolina, impacting thousands of students annually with transformative Holocaust education that combines history, art, and personal testimony.

Our 2026-2027 Fellowship applications are now open!! All teachers in NC are welcome to apply, including Public, Charter, Private, and Homeschool groups. See below to apply today. Applications are due by April 30, 2026!
