Charles Butt Scholarship for Aspiring Teachers

At UNT Dallas, we are looking for people who have:

• passion about the power of education to transform lives
• commitment to teaching in a Texas school district with high needs in critical areas.
• a record of leadership, strong communication, service, academic success, and commitment to continuous learning
• intent to enroll in our School of Education to complete a BS in Education with a specialization in bilingual education

Support for Charles Butt Scholars from the Foundation

In addition to scholarship funding, the Raising Texas Teachers initiative supplements the rigorous education Scholars receive at our partner programs by providing Scholars access to ongoing professional development, mentoring and feedback from teachers and principals, and connections with fellow Charles Butt Scholars across Texas.

This combination of education and supports is designed to ensure Scholars have opportunities to practice and develop pedagogical skills in authentic classroom settings, observe masterful teaching in action, reflect on feedback from expert teachers and school leaders, and participate in a community that fosters professional growth.
