The Worcester Educational Development Foundation (WEDF) provides Educator Grants to Worcester Public Schools (WPS) teachers and staff to support innovative classroom projects and student enrichment activities. These grants give educators the flexibility to introduce new ideas, purchase much-needed classroom resources, and create programs that directly benefit students.
Over the years, WEDF Educator Grants have funded initiatives in STEM education, health and wellness, arts and culture, and college readiness. By investing in teacher-led projects, WEDF helps ensure that every student has access to engaging, creative, and equitable learning opportunities.
With donor support, these Educator Grants continue to inspire innovation in the classroom and make a measurable impact on student success across Worcester Public Schools.
Educator Grants proposals are now closed.
Thank you to the educators and staff who submitted proposals to support and enrich Worcester Public Schools. Your ideas continue to inspire meaningful impact across our classrooms and community.
We look forward to announcing this year’s Educator Grants recipients soon. Please check back for updates and information on the next application cycle.
