IEE is seeking school grant partners
The Institute for Excellence in Education is in the process of writing proposals for three grant opportunities and we are looking for teachers, schools and districts to participate. Below are the three opportunities and the steps you need to take to be included in the application.
Opportunity 1: Teacher Residency Program
This grant works with local districts to fill high needs teaching positions. In a partnership with Saginaw Valley State University candidates who hold a bachelor’s degree but do not have certification will be placed in a yearlong substitute teaching positions. They will receive course work and professional development culminating in certification.
