Oklahoma teachers in the Oklahoma Gas and Electric service area have the opportunity to apply for an all-expense-paid trip to the 2019 National Energy Conference for Educators. OG&E will offer 24 scholarships to sixth, seventh and eighth grade math and science teachers to attend the conference this summer. The deadline for applications is April 1, 2019.

“The company is pleased to be able to support teachers who want to learn more about energy efficiency,” said Kathleen O’Shea, OG&E Spokesperson. “Investing in these teachers is an investment in the future of the energy industry.”

To apply, teachers should complete an online application detailing what energy efficiency means to them and how learning more about energy efficiency will help them teach the curriculum in their classroom. Entries can be submitted at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/EnergyConferenceOGE
