The School Ambassador Fellowship is designed to improve education for students by involving educators in the development and implementation of national education policy. The Fellowship seeks to:

• Create a community of teachers, administrators, counselors, psychologists, social workers and other school staff members who share expertise and collaborate with leaders in the federal government on national education issues.

• Involve educators who work daily with students and teachers in developing policies that affect classrooms and schools.

• Highlight practitioners’ voices and expand educators’ critical leadership at the national, state, and local levels.
