High School Teacher Wins Scholarship to Study Abroad

Caitlin Cassidy, High School English and Theater teacher, has won a $5,000 scholarship from the English Speaking Union (ESU) TLab to study for two weeks this August at the University of Edinburgh. 
ESU TLab is a program that provides teachers with opportunities to study abroad and further their own education. The scholarship covers tuition and lodging for a two-week "Theater and Performance" course focusing on an introduction to contemporary British and Irish theatre with a global impact. Course dates also coincide with the Edinburgh International Festival and the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, the largest celebration of its kind in the world. Cassidy will attend lectures by established academics and daily seminars for discussion of dramatic texts, as well as a series of practical workshops offered by Playwrights' Studio Scotland - Scotland's only dedicated, independent development organization for playwrights.
