Step 1 of 6 16% Introduction The Special Education Foundation realizes a teacher’s budget is limited. So, each year, SEF provides SSD teachers and teacher-level staff with funds to implement innovative educational projects that tax dollars are unable to support. Guidelines Please read carefully. You must be a teacher or teacher-level staff member employed by the Special School District of St. Louis County. The maximum award amount is $1,500. Submission of application does not guarantee funding. Selection is based on a 25 point system. Funding availability or committee discretion may result in partial funding. The Grant will not provide funding for: transportation, standard textbooks, curriculum, conference attendance, training, or programs that are duplications of existing special education or technical programs. Only two grants per teacher will be accepted. You must make sure that SSD cannot fund your project using tax dollars. 25 point system: Creativity and Innovation………………………..three to five points Project Description………………………………..one to three points Itemized Budget…………………………………..one to three points Preparation Identified…………………………….one to three points Evaluation Method………………………………..three to five points Research Support…………………………………three to five points Completed Feedback Form from Prior Year…..zero to one point Questions?
