NCTM Accepting Applications for Equity in Mathematics Grants

DEADLINE: NOVEMBER 7, 2014

The purpose of the grant is to incorporate middle school classroom materials or lessons that will improve the achievement of student groups with a record of underachievement. Grants of up to $8,000 will be awarded for projects that address the mathematics content as defined in the Principles and Standards for School Mathematics of NCTM; the plan for improving achievement of the targeted students; and the anticipated impact on students’ achievement.

To be eligible, applicants must be a current (on or before October 15, 2014) full individual or e-member of NCTM, or teach at a school with a current (on or before October 15, 2014) NCTM pre-K-8 school membership and currently teach mathematics in grades 6-8 at least 50 percent of the school day. Activities are to be completed between June 1, 2015, and May 31, 2016. Past recipients of the grant are ineligible to reapply.
