Special Scholarship Offering for Teacher Appreciation Week

Financially Supporting U.S. Teachers in Pursuing Their Full Teaching Certification


Welcome to Moreland University’s Teacher Appreciation Week Scholarship, where we celebrate educators making a difference in addressing the critical teacher shortage across the United States. We are thrilled to extend this scholarship opportunity to teachers and staff currently working in U.S. schools or districts and pursuing a full teaching certification. 

In the face of a pressing national challenge, Dr. Susanne H. Thompson, President of Moreland University, underscores the urgency: “The teacher shortage in the US is a significant issue that demands attention. At Moreland University, we are committed to addressing this issue and providing financial support to educators who are actively teaching while completing their certification coursework.” 

This scholarship awards eligible applicants with $500 toward their Moreland University tuition, empowering teachers to further their education and professional growth with financial assistance.

At Moreland University, we deeply value the tremendous dedication and impact of teachers in our schools. Teaching is a joyful, rewarding, and occasionally challenging career path that plays a vital role in inspiring young minds, fostering growth, and shaping the future of our communities.  

If you’re a current U.S. educator seeking a full certification while teaching, we hope you’ll join us in celebrating Teacher Appreciation Week throughout the month of May by taking advantage of this scholarship opportunity. Simply apply to and enroll in an eligible Moreland program by May 31, 2024. We look forward to receiving your application and supporting you as you take a significant step forward in your teaching journey! 

Already have your full teaching certification? Be sure to share this scholarship opportunity with teachers in your school or district who may find it of interest.
