Every year the Somerville Mathematics Fund offers teacher grants for K-12 teachers in Somerville who have interesting and exciting ideas to support math learning and enrichment for their students. The grant application is on the Somerville Mathematics Fund website and is due by January 12, 2015.
The maximum amount of any grant is $500 per year. Previous winners are welcome to apply again as long as they have completed their report on the previous grant. You can read about last year’s grant winners on the Somerville Mathematics Blog or by requesting a copy of this year’s annual newsletter to be mailed in early December.
The Somerville Mathematics Fund, an affiliate of the national scholarship organization Dollars for Scholars, was chartered in 2000 to celebrate and encourage achievement in mathematics in the city of Somerville, Massachusetts. Over fourteen years, the math fund has awarded $69,637 in teacher grants in the city of Somerville.
In early April, the fund will be seeking applications from students who reside in Somerville for college mathematics scholarships. The application will be available on
http://somervillemath.dollarsforscholars.org and www.somervillemathematicsfund.org. For more information, to volunteer or to make a tax-deductible contribution, please contact Erica (617-666-0666 or mathfund@gmail.com)
