On Wednesday, Frank Garza announced a new scholarship for Iowa teachers.
The Let the Peacock Fly Scholarship covers airfare, lodging, and tuition to attend a national conference of the teacher’s choosing.
“Dear Iowa Teachers, Thank you for the kind words/messages; my apologies for not being able to get back to you. I wish to invite you to apply for the ‘Let the Peacock Fly’ scholarship,” Garza tweeted.
“Allow me, and countless unknown others, to thank you teachers, coaches, and supervisors, for caring beyond that which was required on a daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, and decades basis, and for your commitment, and the vigilance required, to continually mold, guide, inspire, and ignite the imagination and joy for learning in our youth.
