Mia Balko Student Teaching Scholarship

This scholarship was renamed in honor of the late Mia Balko, who was the director of youth outreach and scholarship coordinator for TFB. Prior to joining TFB, Balko was an agricultural science teacher.

Four senior agricultural education students will receive the Mia Balko Student Teaching Scholarship each semester. The scholarships, valued at $6,000, aim to help students cover expenses during their semester of off-campus student teaching. Students who will be student teaching off-campus in Spring 2025 are encouraged to apply.

Completed applications are due Oct. 30. Click HERE to apply.
