Through the National Board Scholarship Program (NBSP), the GlaxoSmithKline Endowed Scholarship Fund provides scholarships to science teachers nationwide beginning with the 2007-2008 candidate cycle.

Eligible teachers must be first-time candidates in the Early Adolescence/Science or Adolescence and Young Adulthood/Science certificates. Scholarships will be awarded in late 2007.

Interested candidates should e-mail the program coordinator to be placed on the scholarship waiting list. All scholarships are awarded on a first-come, first-served basis.
