Black Male Teachers College Fall 2023 Application

Center for Research and Mentoring of Black Male Students and Teachers

present

The Black Male Teachers College (BMTC) is a virtual -hybrid program for students in grades 8-12 who are interested in or plan to become a teacher. Black male high school students who have not considered becoming a teacher but are willing to learn more should apply to participate in the program.

The program will also provide young men with knowledge of being a:

Black Male College Student
Education Major
Teacher

The students will be mentored by Black college professors, college students, and Black male teachers and leaders. The students will also get the opportunity to meet, interact, and network with other Black male students as well as Black male teachers and leaders throughout the state of Maryland and around the country.

During the school year, Black male high school students will participate in workshops, programs, and activities. Field trips will take place in and out of state; we will facilitate in-person trips. Most of the workshops and activities will take place from 9 am to 10:30 am on Saturdays. In-person, field trips will have later departure times. A small number of special programs or activities will be held in the evenings during the weekday. Advanced notice will be provided to students and families.

The workshops, programs, and activities will focus on strategies to help the young men succeed in high school and college, what it means to be Black, a man, and male teacher, explore and examine Black history and culture, college preparation (e.g., finding scholarships, applying for college and financial aid), career preparation (e.g., creating/refining resumes and cover letters), financial literacy, and entrepreneurship. There will be free giveaways provided to the student participants.

The Black Male Teachers College will operate during the school year, and program activities will run from September 23 - November 18, 2023, culminating in an awards program for the students and their families on Saturday, November 18, 2023, to commemorate their participation in the program and celebrate their accomplishments in and out of the classroom.

All Black male high school students with any level of interest should apply to participate in the program. Scholars and families must attend an orientation held on Saturday, September 23, 2023, from 9:00 am to 10:30 PM.
