The CTA Institute for Teaching has established a competitive grant program for CTA members and chapters to support strength-based, teacher-driven reform for students and public schools.
The grant application process was open to individual CTA members, small teams of educators and affiliated local chapters. Applications were accepted from January 1, 2013 through April 30, 2013. The awards will be announced in June 2013.
Detailed grant information can be found on the IFT website - www.Teacherdrivenchange.org - by clicking on the grant link.
Competitive educator grants will be awarded in amounts up to $5,000.
Competitive chapter grants will be awarded in amounts up to $20,000.
Applications had to reflect innovative efforts to achieve school & district reform and be strength-based and teacher-driven. Applications had to specify how the proposal is strength-based, how it will improve teaching and learning conditions and how student outcomes will be improved.
