Supply Grant
The 2025 supply grant is now open. The state office is excited to offer a Supply Grant to teachers across the state of Colorado. Focused on equity, the state office understands that the exhibit category is often cost-prohibitive for students. Therefore, teachers who need exhibit boards will each receive 1 box (10 exhibit boards) per school anywhere in the state, first-come, first-served basis. Additionally, the State office has a small amount of money to offer exhibit materials such as glue sticks, paper, tape, paint, etc. Educators must use the Staples website and find the item # to apply for the grant.
