ARTA offers $2,000 grants to Arkansas public-school employees in two categories: licensed educators working toward graduate degrees or certifications (excluding National Board Certification), and classified employees with 3+ years service credit pursuing Arkansas teaching licenses. Applications are accepted online from January 15 to March 31. Funding comes from ARTA member donations.
Applicants must be Arkansas public-school employees. Licensed educators must be in certified positions pursuing graduate degrees or certifications. Classified employees need 3+ years service credit and be working toward an Arkansas teaching license.
