2. Proposals must have a title and a detailed summary which includes the purpose; specific learning goals;
activities; a timeline; and, an itemized projection of expenditures.
3. The proposal is for the 2020-2021 school year.
4. Entries must be typed and double-spaced. They may include illustrations and/or pictures.
5. A cover sheet must be attached that includes project title; teacher's name (if a group, include all names);

8. After implementation of the project in spring 2021, grant recipients are required to electronically submit a
photograph and a brief write-up to Malia Klein so it may be posted on the CILC website. Acceptance of the
grant will also require grant recipients to attend a CILC meeting in the 2021-2022 school year to briefly describe their project in a ten minute presentation.
9. CILC Classroom Project Award recipients from the previous two school years are ineligible for the award.

either: 1) purchase their desired items with the award money and donate them to their school for use;
or, 2) they can purchase their desired items with the award money and personally keep them, if they claim it
as income on a 1099 under miscellaneous income.
