IG#whsfuturestudentboard
These amazing Knights are here to provide mentorship, program guidance, and bring awareness to the vast opportunities the College and Career Center has to offer!
Board Member Testimony:
"During my time while being on this board I have learned how many awesome resources that Wheaton High School has had. I feel so much more prepared that I have been involved, going to meetings and I never feel afraid to reach out when I need help. This program has also navigated what I want to focus on in my future career."

The Lily McKee High School Fellowship
Apply by December 1, 2026
The Lily McKee High School Fellowship is one of the Folger’s signature programs for young people – and a rare opportunity for students in grades 10–12 to explore Shakespeare and the humanities in new ways. Each year, a small cohort of students spends time in the Folger’s Reading Room, Theatre, and galleries, working alongside the scholars, artists, librarians, and educators who bring the Folger to life. This year's Fellowship will focus on Hamlet, giving students the opportunity to explore the play through the Folger's extraordinary collections and resources.
Selected Fellows receive a $1,000 stipend for their participation.
We're looking for students with an interest in literature, museums, libraries, history, drama, the humanities, or Shakespeare. No previous experience with Shakespeare or theatre is necessary! We're most interested in students who are curious, enthusiastic, and excited to learn. Do you know a student or two who might be a great fit? We'd be grateful if you would encourage them to apply or share this opportunity with your students.
Attention Knights! Apply by November 8, 2026 for a scholarship to cover program fees.
Final Deadline is
December 6, 2026.
