The Ades Scholars Fellowship
The Ades Scholars Fellowship supports Jewish Day School educators in Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties in pursuing advanced degrees to deepen their expertise and community impact. We invest in teachers’ growth because, when teachers thrive, so do their students. By honoring educators’ commitment to lifelong learning and providing targeted financial support, the fellowship helps them achieve their professional aspirations.
The Ades Scholars Fellowship is a unique opportunity for Jewish Day School teachers in Miami, Broward or Palm Beach Counties to pursue advanced degrees with significant financial and professional support. We will be accepting 15 fellows in the 2026-2027 cohort.
