Shelby Country Retired Teachers Association Awards Grants
•January 25, 2023•
On January 2nd and 3rd the Shelby County Retired Teachers Association presented six $100 mini grants, one to each of the school districts in the county. Classroom teachers submitted proposals in November and recipients were selected by a grant committee. Partial funding for the program came from a Community Day Event held in July at Monical’s Pizza of Shelbyville. SCRTA, a local unit of the Illinois Retired Teachers Association, is pleased to be able to help current classroom teachers as well as retired educators.
“We’re very proud of our county, our teachers and our retired teachers,” said SCRTA President James Sparks who presented the awards.
