Can teachers get grants for technology?

Yes. Best Buy Foundation, Verizon Innovative Learning, and Google for Education all fund classroom technology. The E-Rate program subsidizes internet connectivity. Many state education technology grants exist. ISTE and other education technology organizations maintain directories of tech-focused teacher grants.
