FEA/Retired is proud to continue its classroom enhancement grant program. This program helps working FEA members implement educational programs for students that otherwise could not successfully exist due to a lack of budgetary funding and support. The criteria are broad and are only limited by the ingenuity of the teacher.
The possibilities are endless. Here are a few projects created by previous winners.
- A third grade teacher held an ice cream social for the other 3rd grade classes and in the process taught the children about graphics, multiplication and how to write invoices.
- A kindergarten teacher purchased magnet white boards so the students could practice their letters and words for reading readiness.
- A first grade teacher bought 5 guitars to start a beginners guitar class for 1st graders
- A High Scholl drama teacher used the money to produce and host a play “The Bully Show” from 18 elementary and middle schools in her district.

Your imagination and creativity are all that will limit your participation. We ask that all winners send FEA Retired a short report about the project and its success.
This grant is open to all members: Teachers, ESP’s, Bus drivers, Cafeteria workers, etc.

The retiree district director along with a grant committee will review the applications and will notify the winner(s).
We have expanded the program from one grant per FEA/Retired district to two grant recipients per district due to the great response we received in the past.
We hope you great success.
Thank you for participating,
In Unity,
Vivian Berner Silbiger, President FEA/Retired
