2012 FACULTY AND STAFF |
Check back in June to view the 2012 faculty and staff.

| THE
FACULTY |
| Instructors for the Missouri Scholars Academy form a highly select group. They have been recruited from among the very best teachers in Missouri’s high schools, colleges and universities. A favorable evaluation of an instructor’s written application resulted in a face-to-face interview with the candidate by the co-directors of the program and members of the Academy core planning committee. Among the characteristics sought in faculty members were knowledge of the subject matter, effectiveness in communication, range of intellectual and cultural interests, evidence of personal giftedness, evidence of professional involvement, experience and interest in working with gifted students, evidence of creativity in one’s teaching, tolerance for ambiguity, and organizational skills. The faculty and members of the administrative staff are exemplary in their demonstration of these qualities.
