Innovative Instruction Grant Details
The Country School Association of America (CSAA) Innovative Instruction Grant offers start-up support for the delivery of inventive PreK-12 and/or adult learning programs developed by country school organizations and/or individuals. Successful applications that articulate how the proposed instructional program will address best practices or new trends in curriculum, museum education, and/or public history and its benefit to a target group of learners will be preferred. This award is focused on supporting the implementation of instruction including the materials, resources, and needs in order to successfully pilot and sustain a program.
Proceeds from the annual conference will determine the availability of funds year-to- year. The maximum annual grant will not exceed $1500. Applicants may apply more than once for funding of a program, submitting the appropriate budget information outlined below. Applications that demonstrate prudent spending, maximize resources, and request actual costs are considered most respectable.
In order to ensure quality of programming, each submission should include an education partner. The partner should serve in a defined role that will ensure that the funded program is of sound educational quality, research, and instruction. The partner should have appropriate credentials to review, revise, and articulate the curriculum.
Apply:
Submit complete application below by February 15 to the chairperson of the Innovative Instruction Grant. If an overwhelming number of applications is received, applicants may be asked to allow CSAA to hold their proposal for a following year. The CSAA will make every effort to offer support to programs and reserves the right to adjust awards based on available funds. Recipients will be notified between March 15 and April 30.
Please submit applications via email or USPS mail after the annual conference and by February 15.
