FOUNDATION PROGRAM
The Charles Butt Foundation partners with 20 university-based educator preparation programs across Texas to deliver the Charles Butt Scholarship for Aspiring Teachers. Faculty teams from each institution are also part of the Foundation’s University Partnerships work, which is focused on continuous program improvement.
While all programs align with the values of the scholarship, each has a unique focus and eligibility criteria – some prepare educators for shortage subject areas like bilingual education, special education, or math and science, and others are general education programs or offer a Master of Arts in Education.
The following pages showcase each of these institutions and celebrate the current Charles Butt Scholars and Scholar Alumni who are part of this program and ongoing network of Texas educators.
