SMARTT Grant Opportunity
The Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction (DPI) received a $2.2 million, five-year grant from the U.S. Department of Education to train 100 mathematics, science and special education teachers through Wisconsin's state approved Alternative Route Educator Preparation Programs. The goal of the initiative is to improve both the quantity and quality of the teaching force throughout the schools in the participating local education agencies (LEAs). The Support for Mid-Career Advancement and Retention through Transition-to-Teaching (SMARTT) Project targets mid-career professionals, paraprofessionals, recent college graduates, and honorably discharged military personnel. Individuals must already have a bachelors degree, but not a teaching license.
