Improving Teacher Quality State Grants Program
The Improving Teacher Quality State Grants Program is funded under the No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Act of 2001 (Title II, Part A of Public Law 107-110). The purpose of the program is to increase the academic achievement of all students by helping schools and school districts improve teacher, instructional paraprofessional and principal quality. Through the program, state educational agencies (SEAs) and local educational agencies (LEAs) receive funds on a formula basis, as does the state agency for higher education (SAHE) which, in Ohio, is the Ohio Board of Regents. The SAHE provides competitive grants to public and private colleges and universities to form partnerships comprised of, at a minimum, schools of education and arts and sciences, along with a high-need LEA. The program will support sustained and intensive high-quality science and mathematics professional development to ensure that teachers will provide challenging learning experiences for their students.
The Ohio Board of Regents expects to have available approximately $2.7 million in federal funds to support the fiscal year 2011 Improving Teacher Quality Program. These funds will be allocated to colleges and universities under a competitive grant proposal process that focuses on mathematics and science education programs operating between January 20, 2012 and May 31, 2013.
