March Currently 2015

This is my first "Currently" and I am very excited to share a little bit more about myself!


Grants For Your Schools and Classrooms





Looking for a little extra cash for your classroom?  Or maybe you need a project funded? Maybe a classroom pet or additional technology?  Then applying for a grant would be an ideal route for you. Before you apply for a grant, ASCD has an informative article on grant writing: Getting the Grant. 

Below you will find a small list of organizations that offer various grants throughout the year to students and teachers.
