Looking for a GREAT opportunity for your classroom? Look no further! This grant provided through the Florida Retired Educator Association Foundation (FREF) is a stellar chance to receive funding for your classroom.

In addition to the FREF Grant, there are two former FREA Presidents, Marie Grein and Pamela Schwartz, who each funded Practicing Educator Grants to be given on alternating years. This allows for two Practicing Educator Grants, for $1000.00 each, to be given each year.
