Three graduates receive Georgia Power New Teacher Assistant Grant

Three graduates of the University of Georgia College of Education have been selected to receive the 2015 Georgia Power New Teacher Assistance Grant in the amount of $1,000 each to help them purchase books, computers and other supplies for their classrooms.

Currently in its 12th year, the Georgia Power grant program has helped more than 300 first-year teachers enhance their classrooms with much-needed funds and materials. This year, the company recognized three graduates of UGA’s College of Education: Ashley Jarrett (BSEd ’15), Zachary Kroll (MEd ’15), and Erin Wedereit (BSEd ’15).
