Time is running out to apply for the Classroom Innovation Grants, designed to support creative, student-centered ideas that enhance learning for students with disabilities. With just two weeks remaining, now is the time for educators to turn innovative classroom ideas into reality.

These grants empower educators to think beyond traditional resources—funding projects that promote engagement, independence, and meaningful learning experiences. From adaptive tools and technology to hands-on learning initiatives, Classroom Innovation Grants help bring ideas to life that directly benefit students in the classroom.
