Kenneth A. Lester Summer Immersion Scholarship

In 2011 the Connecticut Council of Language Teachers established the Kenneth A. Lester Student Summer Immersion Scholarship in memory of the organization's founding father and its first president.  The scholarship was established for Connecticut students (pre-K through 16th grade - elementary, middle, high school and university) to help defray the cost of summer language study in an existing approved summer language experience program.  The maximum award is $1000, not to exceed the total cost of the language experience.
