Funds available to assist National Board candidates with application fee
A Candidate Subsidy Program is available to teachers seeking National Board
Certification. The program awards funds to teachers for partial payment of
their candidate fees. Funds for the subsidy program are provided by the U.S.
Congress through a grant from the U.S. Department of Education. Subsidies of
$500 to $1,000 will be awarded to eligible National Board Certification
candidates until funds are obligated.
South Dakota teachers seeking National Board Certification may download an
application from the department’s Web site at
www.state.sd.us/deca/Secretary/. Completed applications must be postmarked
by Oct. 29, 2004, or hand-delivered by 5 p.m. CST on Oct. 29.
Further details are included on the application. Questions regarding this
process can be directed to Roxie Thielen at (605) 773-5669.
