Many people began the school year hopeful that their special ideas for the classroom were going to be funded by grants through Donors Choose and Chevron. There are a large number of classrooms that benefited tremendously from this grant. The Canyons Education Foundation also has generously supported many teacher-driven innovations as well. Due to funding limitations, there are also some grants that have not received the support teachers were hoping to have. We want to let teachers and schools know that hope is not lost . There are still ways to apply for funding. Check out this video podcast that discusses some things you can do! Find out more on our Grants page. Thanks to Katie Dewey, Danae Reff, and Jared Ward for the creation of this video podcast! |
If you have a dream of having more technology in your classroom this is a great place to start. Donors Choose requires teachers to start with small grants and work up to higher dollar grants. Sign up for an account on Donors Choose TODAY. Think about what you would like to get for your classroom. Teachers earn points and when they sign up on Donors Choose. Initially, teachers get three points. Getting a project funded will earn a teacher more points. As teachers earn more points they can request more expensive items like iPads or computers. Don’t worry if you don’t understand everything. Get an account the School’s Ed Tech can help you from there. Pictured above is a list of companies that are partnered with Donors Choose. You can request items from any of these companies. posted by Bobie Glassett |
