Applications are due by November 15, 2023 and grant funds must be used by September 1, 2024. Grants will be approved by a committee and payments will be disbursed through your district.

You may apply for any project that will improve your knowledge and skills as an educator of talented and gifted students including classes and conferences or for any media/materials/services that will contribute directly to the education of TAG students in your classroom.

Grants may be combined with other funding sources for a single project as long as the project contributes directly to educating TAG students or to your knowledge and skills related to educating TAG students.
