The Quality Science and Math Grant Program (QSM) was established by the Louisiana Legislature in 1992 for the purpose of providing materials and equipment to mathematics and science public school teachers. Approximately $162,000 in grants will be awarded this year on a competitive basis to individual classroom teachers for projects providing standards-based instruction to help meet state accountability goals. Only full-time public classroom teachers assigned to teach mathematics or science in regular K-12 education programs are eligible to apply for QSM grants of up $750. Classroom teacher is defined as “any employee of a parish or city school board who holds a teachers’ certificate and whose legal employment requires a teacher’s certificate.” Grant funds must be used for the purchase of non-consumable instructional equipment and/or materials/education technology. Email caincenter@lsu.edu or phone 578-6001 for more information. Deadline: September 18, 2009 (Updated 7/14/09)
