Rewarding excellence in our schools, the College Board is once again seeking applicants for the Inspiration Awards and the Bob Costas Grants for the Teaching of Writing. These two programs provide an opportunity for schools and teachers to be recognized for their contributions and also receive a monetary award to help sustain their successful work.
The deadline for applications to either program
is Nov. 20, 2009.
Inspiration Awards
Every spring the College Board presents Inspiration Awards, including grants of $25,000 each, to three of our country’s most inspiring secondary schools.
Award-winning schools are recognized for their outstanding college-preparation programs and partnerships among teachers, parents and community organizations. Through their dedication and commitment, these school communities open doors to higher education for students facing economic, social and cultural barriers.

Bob Costas Grants for the Teaching of Writing
The Bob Costas Grants recognize exceptional teachers of grades six through 12 for the innovative methods they use to develop their students’ writing skills.
Six grants of $3,000 will be awarded. Winners receive grants to enhance successful projects currently under way. We encourage teachers from all academic disciplines to apply.
The award was named for Bob Costas, the Emmy Award-winning broadcaster and author, for his dedication to the craft of writing and his generous public service work on behalf of the National Commission on Writing.
