Each year, the Ingram-White Castle Foundation generously contributes funds to the Columbus City Schools to support educational improvement grants for teachers. Grants ranging from $100 to $1,000 are awarded for a variety of projects. Successful proposals have had one common quality--they support the district's goal of increased academic achievement for students. This is an excellent opportunity for teachers and other staff to request funding support for a creative idea that meets the needs of students.

This year's application period started on Sept. 9, 2010. All applications must be submitted online. Applicants must have a CCS e-mail account to submit an application. Information can be found on the CCS website under the grants section. Completed applications are due online no later than 4 p.m. on Oct. 8, 2010. Please call Dr. John Farley or Betty Warnock at 365-8733, if you have questions.
