About grants for education

Education grants fund schools, teachers, students, and learning programs at every level. The Department of Education distributes billions annually through formula and competitive grants, while foundations like Gates, Walton, and Dell support innovation in K-12 and higher education. State agencies add another layer of funding for local education initiatives.

Frequently Asked Questions

What federal grants are available for schools?

Major federal education grants include Title I (for high-poverty schools), IDEA (special education), Title III (English learners), 21st Century Community Learning Centers (after-school), and competitive grants like Magnet Schools Assistance and Education Innovation and Research (EIR). The Department of Education publishes a forecast of upcoming grant competitions annually.

Can individual teachers apply for grants?

Are there grants for education technology?

Absolutely. Federal programs like E-Rate subsidize internet connectivity and technology infrastructure. The EIR program funds ed-tech innovation. Foundations like the Michael & Susan Dell Foundation and the Bezos Family Foundation specifically support technology-enhanced learning.
