Grants For ESL Educators
In 2008, we are pleased to offer grants to MinneTESOL members to support the important work in ESL being done around the state. Applications are due May 10, 2008, and may include proposals for special events, classroom materials, professional development, and other learning projects. Please download the application for more information. Questions can be directed to Patsy at patsy@minnetesol.org. Financial support for these grants was made possible in part through funds raised at the 2007 Silent Auction at the Fall Conference. Please consider making a donation to the silent auction in 2008! More information will follow in coming months.
