$500.00 Mini-Grant Opportunity!
The Missouri Retired Teachers Association awards a minimum of 98 $500.00 grants each year. This year, because of a recent donation by Chillicothe R-2 retired teacher Cleo Willard, two grants must go to Chillicothe teachers this coming school year! I have attached the application, in both PDF form and a converted Google Doc for you.
Please keep in mind these guidelines:
1. Follow the format outlined in the application and include all sections as stated on the application form.
2. Be specific on the budget. Itemize all budgetary requests.
3. Clearly delineate the number of total students this idea will help.
4. Include if this idea/purchase would be used by other teachers (department, grade level etc.).
5. Will the purchases continue to be used beyond the immediate year?
6. How does the idea contribute to student achievement, student cognitive engagement, and learning through community/parental involvement?
Click here to access the form via Google Docs.
All applications should be postmarked by June 30, 2019.
As always, let me know if you have any questions. I would be happy to help you.
