Grants available from Beta Nu for professional educators

The Beta Nu Chapter of Delta Kappa Gamma group has set a Nov. 15 deadline for their Professional Educators grants.

These are continuing education grants from the Helen Gariepy Grants for School Educators in Clallam and Jefferson County.

Grants will be made available to selected educators who are working for professional improvement or development of their teaching skills.

Any educator or paraprofessional working in a Clallam or Jefferson County school may apply. Funding may be for full reimbursement of funds, or for partial reimbursement of programs not paid for from any other sources.

Applications are available at www.betanuchapter.com. Applications must be postmarked by Nov. 15 to be considered eligible for the fall deadline.

Gariepy’s bequest honors her long career as an educator in Port Angeles.

Interested educators with questions may contact Kathy Strozyk at 360-683-1299 or kjstrozy@olypen.com and Sharle Osborne at sharleo@stevekoehler.com for more information.
