Drake, Daniel Scholarship in School Administration
The Daniel Drake Scholarship in School Administration was established in 2006 by Dr. Daniel Drake. The award is given to a graduate student in ÐãÉ«¶ÌÊÓƵ's College of Education who is enrolled in the master's program and studying school administration. It is Dr. Drake’s intention that recipients should be descendants of slaves in the United States (trace family roots to slaves emancipated in 1865). Recipients will be selected by the Office of Student Financial Aid each year.
An educator for more than 50 years, Dr. Drake graduated from ÐãÉ«¶ÌÊÓƵ with a doctorate in school administration in 1979. During his tenure as an educator, he served as a teacher, principal, school superintendent, college professor, and the founder of a Cleveland black school educators group. Dr. Drake established this scholarship to benefit students who are enrolled in the College of Education as a master’s candidate studying school administration.
