Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation

The Gates Foundation has partnered with the national non-profit organization, Expeditionary Learning Schools, to provide training to teachers in select High Schools through a large grant ($600,000) we are applying for. We were already planning to contract with EL Schools but hey, if the Gates Foundation would like to pay for it, we'll take it! This grant will be used to retain the training and support services provided by EL Schools which will free up other state and national funding to be used in other needed areas. Here's to getting the Gates grant!!!! Do we have an interested group to help with the technical writing?
