Due to the state budget cuts in 2024, MBEF has directed all funding to retain educators in the classroom. The funding typically utilized for the MBEF Educator Grant Program was also re-directed for this purpose. We value the initiative and dedication of all MBUSD educators and hope to be able to support this program again in the future.
The MBEF Educator Grant Program was created to support excellence in our schools by empowering MBUSD educators with funding to implement projects that will enhance teaching and learning throughout the district. The program provides educators with the opportunity to re-define best practices, explore innovative and inclusive approaches to instruction, collaborate and partner with colleagues, and connect the wealth of knowledge, expertise and talent within the MBUSD community.
The Educator Grant Program funds programs that support:
- innovative teaching
- project-based education
- experiential learning
- new technologies
- character development
- arts integration
- inclusive and equitable community
- understand, respect and celebrate all people
