The Hollyhock Fellowship Program aims to help stop this revolving door by encouraging, supporting, and recognizing highly motivated early-career teachers and providing them with rich learning opportunities with colleagues nationwide. The program brings 100 teachers from high schools across the country with low-income student populations to Stanford University for two weeks of residential workshops -- for two consecutive summers -- that feature courses caught by university scholars and expert practitioners. Fellows also receive online coaching and mentorship for two school years. Teachers are awarded a stipend for participation, and the program covers all travel and boarding expenses.
