The Fellowship Program is open to talented, recent-college graduates who want to help improve inner-city education and to work to break cycles of poverty. Fellows teach an average of 2-4 class periods per day while serving as advisors, tutors, proctors, coaches, monitors and all other responsibilities that promote the success of our students’ well-being. Applicants need not be education majors and need not have a teaching certificate. Fellows are provided with a furnished, community house – Casa Maria – where all room and boarding costs are covered. Other benefits include health insurance, life insurance and car insurance – all fully paid by Nativity. Fellows receive an AmeriCorps Educational Award ($5,300 for each year of the Fellowship) and can pursue at Assumption College and Clark University a number of graduate degrees free of tuition costs. Most of all, Fellows receive the administrative support to succeed in the classroom. The commitment is for two years.

Nativity School of Worcester is no longer accepting applications for the Fellowship starting in July of 2010.  Please check again next year.  For additional information on the Fellowship, including the application process, please see Teaching Fellow FAQs.
