David D. and Rosemary H. Coffin Fellowship for Travel in Classical Lands

From http://www.apaclassics.org/index.php/awards_and_fellowships/details/coffin_fellowship_for_travel_in_classical_lands

In 2013 the American Philological Association (APA) will again award the David D. and Rosemary H. Coffin Fellowship for study and travel in classical lands. The Fellowship is intended to recognize secondary-school teachers of Greek or Latin who are as dedicated to their students as the Coffins themselves by giving them the opportunity to enrich their teaching and their lives through direct acquaintance with the classical world. It will support study in classical lands (not limited to Greece and Italy); the recipient may use it to attend an educational program in (e.g. American Academy, American School) or to undertake an individual plan of study or research. It may be used either for summer study or during a sabbatical leave, and it may be used to supplement other awards or prizes.

Candidates for the Fellowship must have been teaching Latin or Ancient Greek at the secondary level (grades 9-12) in North America as a significant part of their academic responsibilities for three years out of the five prior to the award.

The amount of the award for 2013 will be $2,750.

All application materials must be received no later than 5:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on Friday, February 15, 2013.
