"Grants for teachers and students offer great opportunities for projects that could not be funded otherwise. All of the projects that will be awarded funding will enhance the curriculum already being taught in our classrooms," said Evan Stitt, a chairman of the Partners in Education Board of Directors.
In 2011, these organizations together funded $19,500 through 44 grants ranging from $85.00 to $1000.00 each. Teachers in 14 schools were able to jump start educational projects not funded through tax dollars in subjects including math, literature, and science. |
