In Fiscal Year 2017, Knowles Teacher Initiative staff donated $4,613 and agreed to use these funds to create a scholarship that will be used to support a Knowles Senior Fellow and a colleague to attend Knowles Academy courses, starting with the 2017 Engineering Design course.
Knowles Teacher Initiative founder Janet H. Knowles generously gave $100,000 in 2016 to fund Seed Projects—initiatives that are designed to improve education beyond a Senior Fellow’s own classroom. Six Seed Projects totaling $49,519 were awarded during the 2016–2017 academic year, including two teacher observation groups, a peer coaching program, and a writing retreat.
Knowles Teacher Initiative founder C. Harry Knowles and Knowles Teacher Initiative trustee Lucy Balian Rorke-Adams generously donated $3 million to support the work of the organization.
