Teacher Grant ApplicationWe know teachers are busy and don't have time to complete a lengthy application process, so we've created this simple form for YOU! Please feel free to submit your application at any time during the year, but note that grant applications are reviewed once per year each spring, and decisions are communicated to all applicants each May.
Each spring the PEF will award 20 mini-grants of up to $250 each, and two pilot projects of up to $2500 each. We engage with teachers to fund classroom mini-grants that “plug small holes” often found by teachers who need an extra piece of equipment, want to explore a new technology with students, or innovate how they teach students.
