Federal grants totaling $850,000 available to improve educator effectiveness

Colorado Department of Higher Education seeks program proposals

The Colorado Department of Higher Education (DHE) is seeking proposals for programs that would partner educator preparation programs at institutions of higher education with Colorado school districts for the purpose of improving teacher quality.

Federal grants totaling $850,000 are available under Title IIA of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (formerly known as No Child Left Behind).

The purpose of the competitive grants is to increase K-12 student academic achievement by improving educator effectiveness and the equitable distribution of effective educators throughout the state. The DHE is especially interested in proposals that offer professional development and college coursework to educators in small, rural school districts.
