Nichols said “I’m honored to join IMPACT Arkansas and excited to grow, lead, and inspire. Being part of the IMPACT Arkansas Fellowship is going to shape me into a more intentional, reflective, and effective educator. The experiences and skills I gain will not only strengthen my own practice, but will also create a lasting impact on the educators and students I have the privilege to serve."
The IMPACT Fellowship, through the University of Arkansas College of Education and Health Professions, prepares future leaders to serve in low-income schools across the state. We are so proud of Abby for earning this incredible opportunity and look forward to seeing the positive impact she will make across Arkansas!
