Applegate Training & Support Grants for Teachers
06.14.2012 -
Funding for Applegate Training & Support Grants for Teachers comes from the John Russell Applegate Fund for Teachers.
Applegate Training & Support Grants for Teachers will be considered for training or support projects that benefit elementary and secondary school teachers in the North Platte area defined as the Nebraska counties of Custer, Dawson, Frontier, Hayes, Keith, Lincoln, McPherson and Perkins.
Applegate Grants are made only to public schools, to other public educational organizations as well as to non-profit federally tax exempt 501(c)(3) schools and organizations. Grants are NOT made to support regular operating budgets of organizations. Grants are NOT made directly to individuals.
Applications are invited for Training Grants in amounts of between $250 and $5,000 for training and/or instructional coaching that will benefit teachers at elementary and/or secondary schools with one or more of the following objectives: - Training in research-based or proven practices to teach language arts
- Training in classroom behavior management strategies
- Training in learning styles and differentiated instructional strategies
Applications are invited for Support Grants in amounts of between $250 and $5,000 to help cover costs of acquiring resources wanted by elementary and/or secondary school teachers in order to provide innovative and effective learning experiences for students.
Projects are favored that will make a major impact, will help make a needed change or will contribute to the solution of any important problem related to the stated objectives. Grant awards may differ from the amount of grant money requested.
Deadline dates for applications for Applegate Training & Support Grants are:
October 15

Grants are made after a competitive review of grant applications submitted by each application deadline. Typically, there are more requests for funds than there are funds available to grant.
