Funds assist National Board candidates with fee
Teachers pursuing National Board Certification may apply
for subsidies of $500 to $1,000 while funds last. The
subsidies help to cover the NBC application fee.
The U.S. Department of Education’s Candidate Subsidy Program
helps financially offset a portion of the application fee for
teachers who are pursuing National Board Certification.
Subsidies will be awarded to eligible NBC candidates while funds
last. Funds are provided by the U.S. Congress and allocated to
states.
An application may be downloaded from the South Dakota
Department of Education’s Web site at
http://doe.sd.gov/secretary/NationalBoard/index.asp.
Completed applications must be postmarked by Oct. 31, 2006.
Further details are included on the application. Questions
regarding this process can be directed to Roxie Thielen in the
South Dakota Department of Education at (605) 773-4669 or
roxie.thielen@state.sd.us.
