ANNUAL GRANTS
Each Fall, MFEE awards up to $60,000 in grants to Montclair Public School educators. These grants purchase innovative classroom tools and other resources that boost learning in classrooms. These ideas come directly from staff and administrators, and they are reviewed by central office department heads. Read more about the most-recent grant awards on our blog.
