Application open for educator preparation program financial assistance

Feb

The Educator Recruitment and Retention program was created by Senate Bill 21-185 to provide support to members of the armed forces and nonmilitary-affiliated educator candidates in pursuing a career as an educator and to provide support to local education providers to recruit, select, train, and retain highly qualified educators across the state. Qualified program applicants can apply for up to $10,000 in one-time financial assistance toward their educator preparation program costs if they commit to teaching in a rural or small rural district for three years.

Applicants must apply by Tuesday, May 31, to receive financial assistance for the 2021-22 school year. An application window for the 2022-23 school year will open this summer. An informational webinar will be held at 10 a.m. on Wednesday, Feb 23. For details, including application guidance, the application, and webinar access visit the Educator Recruitment and Retention Program webpage.
