now accepting
2020-21 CLASSROOM PROJECT Program
applications!
The Hayward Education Foundation is now accepting applications for its 2020-2021 HEF Classroom Projects Program and the COVID-19 Addendum funding.
Awards up to $1,000 are available to individual teachers for innovative and creative classroom projects which enhance the learning experience of Hayward students. Funding is provided through a competitive bidding process usually announced at the beginning of the school year. All teachers who are employed at schools in Hayward (Public, Private, Charter etc.) are eligible and encouraged to submit a classroom project for funding.
For this funding year, we have added a COVID-19 Addendum. This additional funding has been allocated to HELP SUPPORT TEACHERS and students adapt to the unique circumstances and new challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic. Awards up to $800 are available to individual teachers to help with distance/remote learning and the transition period for the 2020-2021 school year. It is our goal to offer help and support to online classrooms in ways that the district cannot.
Applicants may apply for both funding options but must submit the respective applications. Applications that have joint funding requests, will not be accepted.
