About the Grant Program

Technology can help make many classroom subjects more engaging and interactive, thereby building strength in math, science and other important areas. CenturyLink supports teachers and schools in their endeavors to increase student success through the use of technology.

With the 2012 CenturyLink Teachers & Technology program, teachers across Colorado have the opportunity to share $150,000 in grants for their technology-related programs.

The CenturyLink Teachers & Technology grants are awarded through a competitive process administered by the Public Education & Business Coalition. Eligible PreK-12 teachers must submit a completed grant application by March 5, 2012. Each application will be reviewed and evaluated by a blue-ribbon panel of education, business and civic leaders.

Winning individuals and team leaders will be notified no later than April 13, 2012. Funds for 75 percent of the grant will be awarded in April 2012. Funds for the remaining 25 percent of the grant shall be awarded after the recipient has submitted a required expense report (see grant guidelines).

In alignment with the philanthropic goals of CenturyLink, the Teachers & Technology grant program aims to improve PreK-12 education and continue to demonstrate CenturyLink's solid commitment to supporting enhanced student learning and engagement by encouraging teachers to be innovative in their classrooms.
