Central Alumnus Awarded Prestigious Fellowship

February 9, 2021

The district is proud to announce that Central High School 2010 graduate Korde Inniss was awarded a 2021 Charles B. Rangel International Affairs Fellowship.

Administered by Howard University, the Rangel Fellowship supports extraordinary individuals who want to pursue a career in the Foreign Service of the U.S. Department of State. The fellowship will support Korde through a two-year master’s degree and will also provide extensive professional development opportunities, including internships, mentors, and skills training. Upon successful completion of the program, Korde will become a U.S. diplomat and will embark on one of the most challenging and rewarding careers of service to the country. He will work to advance U.S. interests, protect American citizens, and promote peace and prosperity around the world.

Korde is an Air Force veteran and graduate of Morehouse College. While attending Morehouse, he participated in the Rangel International Affairs Summer Enrichment Program, which fueled his interest in a career in the Foreign Service.

The district applauds Korde on this tremendous accomplishment and wishes him the best of luck throughout this program.
