MLEC offering two, $1000 grants to teachers in each county

Meriwether Lewis Electric Cooperative is accepting Adopt-A-School Grant applications through August 31, 2021. The cooperative offers two, $1000 grants in each county it serves to support its commitment to the community through education.

This annual grant is intended to supplement funding of specific, innovative, classroom-level programs being carried out primarily in schools with greater fund needs. Projects should enhance learning opportunities for students and be used this school-year.
