The Dr. Dan Kahler Innovative Teaching Grants Program funds enhanced teaching and learning opportunities. Applicants must demonstrate creative, innovative and effective ways to meet students’ needs, while increasing their motivation to learn and achieving measurable outcomes. All district staff may apply.
For the 2022-2023 school year, the Education Foundation awarded district staff 23 grants worth $35,000. Winners were surprised during the Great Grant Giveaway April 19. Applications for the 2023-2024 school year will be available in December. Click below for PDF and Word documents of this year’s grant guidelines, applications and evaluation criteria.
The Education Foundation Advisory Board will determine the number of grants awarded annually. All applications will be reviewed anonymously by a committee of educators, community members and Education Foundation representatives.
