Invitation: Horace Mann – Abraham Lincoln Fellowship

History Education Hawaii has received the following from the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum in Illinois:

We strongly encourage Hawaii K-12 history teachers to apply.
The deadline was originally January 3, 2011. It has been extended to February 12, 2011:

Attention K-12 Educators!
Be a part of the Horace Mann and
Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library Fellowship Program

Time's running out for the February 12, 2011 deadline!

Each summer in Lincoln’s hometown of Springfield, Ill., 50 teachers from public and non-public schools are accepted as program Fellows. Attendees receive unparalleled behind-the-scenes access to educational resources and historians at the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum (ALPLM).

This program is jointly sponsored by the ALPLM and the Horace Mann Companies (NYSE:HMN) which provide insurance, annuities and other financial solutions to teachers and other educators.

The program covers the cost of round-trip transportation, as well as lodging and meals while in Springfield.

Fellows will tour New Salem State Historic Site where Lincoln lived as a young man, the Lincoln Home, the Old Illinois State Capitol where Lincoln made his “House Divided” speech, the Lincoln-Herndon Law Office, and Lincoln’s Tomb. Attendees will broaden their knowledge of the Sixteenth President through lectures, workshops and group discussions.

The 2011 program will accept 25 teachers for the June 19-24 session and another 25 for the July 10-15 session. Teachers may select their preferred session date. Special activities are in the works to mark the 150th anniversary of the beginning of the Civil War.
