Through funding from some of the community’s major corporate education supporters, the Foundation for OCPS has awarded over 5,500 teachers and distributed over $3 million for classroom-based projects since the inception of the Teacher Impact Grant program.
Each grant provides funding of $500 to $15,000 to support the implementation of innovative projects in the classroom, designed to improve student achievement.
When teachers are provided with the necessary resources, they can create transformative learning experiences for their students.
