Grants for Excellence in Teaching (GET)
Apply for money to help fund a classroom project. The only catch is you have to share the project, including created materials and resources, here on this website for other teachers when you are done. Fill out the application form which will be sent to the Executive for approval. The DEADLINE is Dec. 5, 2016. Afterwards, the Executive will review ALL applications and determine the recipients for that year. Recipients will be notified by email, and they will receive a portion of their funding when school resumes after the Christmas break, along with a letter of acceptance in which the recipient agrees to all of the terms, conditions, and criteria listed below, as well as the protocols for completion of the project. Final payment will occur upon completion of the project and submission of all receipts, materials and resources.
Terms, Conditions & Criteria:

The project must take place in an ELA classroom in Quebec from K-11 in the public and private sector including adult/voc. ed. and be completed within that school year.
Constraints: Funding cannot be used to: a) pay the salary of a school board consultant and/or resource person, etc.; b) realize a school board mandated project, e.g. a compulsory exam for students; or, c) purchase major capital equipment, however, special consideration may be given to projects of merit where the capital equipment required is modest.
Requirements: (1) Compatibility with the Quebec Education Program (QEP), including the Progression of Learning and Frameworks for Evaluation for English Language Arts; (2) Feasibility in both scope and time: projects must be completed within the school year; (3) Contribution to the ELA teaching community: all materials/resources produced, including student samples, will be posted on this website as a way of giving back to the community.
