Teacher Quality Application

Before we get to the information on Teacher Quality, I want to share my appreciation for all that you do to support our students.  Teaching is so much more than a job, and what you give to students will shape and influence their lives.  It is one of the most important and rewarding professions that exist--and your commitment and dedication is very much appreciated.

There is one window for teacher quality funds to support coursework this year.  This window has extended across the school year (August 23, 2018-August 22, 2019). 

There is a $375 limit for teacher quality funding during this timeframe. Each teacher may submit one TQ Course Application during the 2018-2019 school year.  You may submit an application through the link below.  This link may also be found on the mySEP page under "Teaching and Learning Resources."
