| Citigroup
Success Fund, made possible through generous support from the Citigroup
Foundation, has awarded the Abilene Education Foundation with a grant of
$25,000.00 to be used for innovative science classroom grants. AISD teachers
will be invited to apply for these grants of up to $2,000 each during November
and December 2007. Applications will be available online at www.AISD.org
and the AEF website. The AEF hopes that this new program will enable AISD
teachers to expand science curriculum in creative ways in addition to supporting
curriculum goals and improving the district's science test scores. With
this new funding opportunity, the AEF hopes to help make an impact by providing
funds that will enable science teachers to improve instruction and implement
innovative applications in the classroom. The grant award winners will be
recognized and the grant monies awarded at a reception Feb. 7, 2008. The
monies may be used during the calendar school year of 2008 spring and fall
semesters. Grant applications must be turned in by Jan. 18, 2008. Citigroup Success Fund Application and Eligibility |
