Article published on Monday, July 12, 2010
Santee Electric Cooperative is now accepting
application for its fifth year of Bright Ideas, a
grant program to provide funding for innovative classroom-based
education projects.
Bright Ideas grants are intended to fund projects outside normal school funding parameters and are available to all disciplines in grades K-12 in Williamsburg, Georgetown, Clarendon, and lower Florence counties. They are not for professional development. A school may submit more than one application, but a teacher is limited to one application per school year. All completed applications must be received at Santee Electric Cooperative by September 20, 2010.
Recipients will be announced on October 26, 27 and 28, 2010 with the Bright Ideas Prize Team. If a teacher at your school wins, we want to surprise them in their classroom.
This fall teachers will be competing for $10,000.Grants are awarded for up to $1,000. Santee Electric Cooperative adopted the idea from the North Carolina Electric Cooperatives and Palmetto Electric Cooperative, which have awarded more than $2 million since the program's inception in 1994.
If you have any questions about the grant program or application procedures please contact Jay Kirby at (843) 355-0501 or at 1-800-922-1604. Please also feel free to reach us by e-mail at brightideas@santee.org.
