Did you know that there is a teacher directed/run grant program that can help you fund innovative instructional programs at your school? The Institute for Teaching (IFT) helps all students and schools by awarding grants directly to CTA members and local chapters. To date, CTA members have funded 501 grant projects totaling more than $5.8 million. All CTA members are eligible to apply for an Educator grant (up to $5,000) or an Impact grant (up to $20,000). You must be a member to apply.
The next round IFT grants applications will open up on December 1, 2022 and run through March 31, 2023. Follow this link for more information.
