A deadline is fast approaching for K-12 educators interested in a grant initiative through Western Governors University to help those forced to adapt to new teaching styles throughout the pandemic.
Up to $125,000 has been pledged by WGU to those teachers needing help funding their innovative classroom projects as part of the nonprofit university’s “Fund My Classroom” Initiative. Teachers can submit proposals online at wgu.edu/fundmyclassroom for full or partial funding.
Funding can be requested for books, supplies, equipment and technology as well as classroom experiences and field trips.
Applications are being accepted through Sunday, April 18. Selected classroom projects will be announced during Teacher Appreciation Week, May 3 through May 7.
