10.5.25 – The MDE Grant is BACK! We are in the budget!

I am excited to share that the MDE Grant (99h) is back. We are in the budget at a slightly higher amount than last year! Non-pubs are in again at the same number.
I want to thank everyone who sent notes or spoke with their legislators.  You helped them understand the importance of this grant to our robotics teams and to Michigan’s future workforce.
If you’d like to send a quick thank-you email to those you’ve sent letters to, that would be fantastic!
As soon as the MDE releases the timeline for applying, I’ll send it along to you.
