Grants provide up to $1,000 to educators, both certificated and classified, for new ongoing projects that have no other available funding source. Educators must make a compelling, innovative case about how their proposed project will advance student learning in the classroom, support students’ attainment of their educational goals, and integrate into existing or future curriculum, instructional methodology, or educational programs.
Grant categories identified are: Math/ Engineering, Reading/Writing, Technology/Science, Arts/Visual Performing/Media, Parent Outreach, Field Trips. Teachers of special subjects like physical education are also eligible to apply.
Recipients of the 2022-2023 Spark Innovation for Learning Grant are asked to provide a one-page summary describing how they used the funds and what the grant has accomplished. This, along with a classroom video or slide presentation, is due June 1, 2023.
