-
Who is eligible to apply?Any certified classroom teacher, counselor, librarian, or instructional staff member currently employed by Moore Public Schools is eligible to apply. If you're passionate about your students and have an idea to enhance their learning, we’d love to hear from you! Administrators and coordinators are encouraged to apply during the spring grant cycle.
-
Can I submit more than one grant application?In most cases, no. The only case in which we would accept 2 applications from the same person is if they apply for an individual and a team grant that serve clearly different needs.
-
Is there a dollar limit?Yes - we will fund grants up to $1,500. We encourage you to be thoughtful, specific, and realistic with your budget.

What kinds of things can be funded?So many possibilities! Past grants have funded: Hands-on learning materials Classroom supplies Classroom libraries Flexible seating STEM supplies and technology Guest speakers or authors Field trips or in-school experiences Creative arts or music materials SEL resources If it supports student learning and isn’t already covered by your regular school budget, it may be eligible! If you have questions, just ask!
