2026-2027 Annual Conference

Conference Funding Ideas

💸 DON’T LET MONEY BE THE REASON YOU MISS OUT!

Before you assume it’s not in the budget, talk to your administrator. End-of-year funds are often sitting unclaimed,  and your professional development is exactly what they’re meant for.

Not sure where to look? Try these:

  • Title I: Schoolwide Programs & Targeted Assistance Programs
  • Title II, Part A: Preparing, Training, and Recruiting Licensed Teachers, Principals, and Other School Leaders Grant
  • Title IVA: Student Support and Academic Enrichment
  • Perkins V (high school only)
  • Perkins Reserve Grant
  • IDEA Coordinated Early Intervening Services (limited)
  • DPI Stronger Connections Grant
  • School-Based Mental Health Grant
  • DPI Education for Homeless Children and Youth Grant
  • DPI Gifted and Talented Grant
  • School-Based Mental Health Services State Funding
  • College Board AP Test Rebate ($9/test)
  • Grants from Local Education Foundations and Unions
