Rural Teacher Wins Civic Fellowship | Burlington News

Published 4 weeks ago
Description

Joe Emery, a Vermont teacher turning heads nationwide, is one of just five educators selected for a top-tier civic education fellowship designed to empower rural students. For 13 years, he’s made AP U.S. History and Government come alive in his small-town classroom, proving civics isn’t just for city dwellers—it’s for everyone. With hands-on voter drives, statehouse visits, and state-level resource creation, Emery’s already making waves. Now, through intensive training with Constitution Center scholars, he’ll become a mentor to other teachers, spreading critical knowledge on First Amendment rights, religious liberty, and Fourth Amendment protections. His mission? To turn today’s students into tomorrow’s informed, engaged leaders—whether they’re running for governor or serving on a local board.
