Funds available to assist with National Board application fee
Teachers who currently are pursuing National Board
Certification can apply for a subsidy to offset a portion of
their application fee.
Each year, the U.S. Department of Education allocates funds
to South Dakota for the Candidate Subsidy Program. Subsidies
of $500 to $1,000 are awarded to eligible candidates. Funds
are provided by the U.S. Congress.
The application can be downloaded from the
department’s Web site. Completed applications must be
returned to the South Dakota Department of Education by Oct.
31, 2005.
Further details are included on the application. Questions
can be directed to Roxie Thielen at (605) 773-4669.
