We are proud that 2026 Oak Glen High School graduate Macy Hartung is part of this amazing program for West Virginia’s aspiring educators. Congratulations, Macy!!!

🎉Congratulations to the 26 newest Underwood-Smith Teaching Scholars! 🎉

On Friday evening, we celebrated an outstanding group of future educators who have earned the prestigious Underwood-Smith Teaching Scholars Program scholarship. The program provides up to $40,000 to West Virginia's top aspiring teachers, helping them pursue degrees in education while committing to teach in West Virginia's classrooms after graduation. 🎓

The impact is already being felt across West Virginia. Since the program was established in 2020, 35 Underwood-Smith Teaching Scholars are now teaching in West Virginia classrooms, inspiring the next generation of students. As the first cohort graduated in 2024, that number will continue to grow each year.

The 2027 cohort application opens Oct. 1, 2026.

🌟Graduates, we can't wait to see the difference you'll make for West Virginia's students! 🌟
