a non profit organization that works in cooperation with the
Oregon Board of Education to help teachers help

encourage creativity in the classroom, develop more
effective methods of instruction and reward imaginative
teaching in everyday lessons.

are intended to help develop more effective methods of
instruction. As
such the grant committee will award grants using the
following guidelines

Money is intended for
instructional resources and materials (refreshments
and prizes are not eligible)

Grants may be repeated however
the priority is to provide "seed
money" for new ideas.

is the expectation of the grant committee that awardees
will complete an evaluation form at the end of the grant
