August 13, 2024 @ 8:00 am - 5:00 pm
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Jacksonville Public Education Fund (JPEF) is excited to announce that applications are now open for the Resiliency Through Community mini classroom teacher assistance. This initiative provides $300 in funding to help teachers enhance their classrooms with much-needed supplies and resources, supporting their efforts to create engaging and effective learning environments for their students.
“My students come from very low-income homes, where their parents don’t have the extra funds. I’m glad programs like this allow me to have extra supplies for the students in need,” says middle school teacher Tyrah Stewart, who plans on applying for the funding.
Admin and staff are ineligible for this funding. JPEF encourages teachers to complete the application thoroughly. Up to 15 teachers will be awarded funds. To be eligible, teachers must,
● Apply before the August 16 deadline
● Be a full-time Duval County teacher
● Be a student facing 75% of their day
