Are You a School Administrator?

America’s Farmers Grow Rural Education, a Monsanto Fund program, is giving grants to help improve math and science education in rural school districts. To become eligible to compete for a grant, your school district must be nominated by a local farmer.

All grants must be submitted by 11:59 p.m. CT on April 30, 2012.

Grants will be awarded based on merit determined by the Monsanto Fund, need and community support. The more farmers to nominate your school district, the more it demonstrates community support and strengthens your school district’s application. Share this exciting opportunity with local farmers in your area by forwarding them a link to www.GrowRuralEducation.com.

If your school district has already been nominated by a local farmer, an information kit will be mailed to you with your invitation code and the grant site information. To begin preview the applications click here.
