Grant Program

Grants for Great Ideas

We’re currently seeking applicants for Grants for Great Ideas, a program we designed to encourage, facilitate, recognize and reward innovative and creative instructional approaches for the accomplishment of educational excellence.

Projects should directly involve and impact students. Grants may be used to compensate experts or resource speakers who work with students, but should not be used to pay employees of Silsbee ISD. If you’re interested in applying, please be sure that your project meets our selection criteria.
