Applications Now Ready for 2009 Holocaust Education Seminar

Just wanted to pass this info along.

Dear Colleagues,

The Holocaust Educators Network, in partnership with the National
Writing Project, announces 25 fellowships for NWP teacher-consultants in
the Rural Sites Network to attend the Memorial Library Summer Seminar on
Holocaust Education in New York City. This year, writing project
teachers may apply as individuals or in teams of two. To learn more
about the application process, visit
http://www.nwp.org/cs/public/print/events/394. Applications must be
postmarked by January 16, 2009.

We hope that you will share this information with others, especially
history or social studies teachers who are part of your writing project
community. In fact, you may want to organize a site continuity meeting
to support teachers who would like to learn more about the seminar and
application process.

Happy Holidays to all.
