The NEA
Foundation supports a variety of efforts by teachers, education support professionals,
and higher education faculty and staff to improve student learning in the nation's
public schools, colleges, and universities.
- Learning & Leadership Grants: provide opportunities for teachers,
education support professionals, and higher education faculty and staff to engage
in high-quality professional development and lead their colleagues in professional
growth. The grant amount is $2,000 for individuals and $5,000 for groups engaged
in collegial study. The next application deadline is June 6, 2008.
- Student
Achievement Grants: provide $5,000 to improve the academic achievement
of students by engaging in critical thinking and problem solving that deepen knowledge
of standards-based subject matter. The work should also improve students’ habits
of inquiry, self-directed learning, and critical reflection. (These
grants replace the Foundation’s Innovation Grants program, which has been discontinued.) The next application deadline is June 6, 2008.
- Announcing the Recipients of the NEA's Books Across America Library Books Awards: In collaboration with the National Education Association, The NEA Foundation will make approximately 50 awards of $1,000 each to public schools serving economically disadvantaged students to purchase books for school libraries.

- Closing
the Achievement Gaps: Many economically disadvantaged and minority
students do not have the same opportunities for academic success as their more
affluent peers. With support from the NEA Foundation, partnerships led by NEA
affiliates, school districts, and community organizations will take action to
accelerate the achievement rate for disadvantaged and minority students, while
raising achievement for all groups of students. Details.
Application is by invitation only. Additional
