The competition was stiff and fewer than 10 awards would be made nationally, but my client thankfully received more than $800,000 in grant monies to start an alternative school for dropouts. Later, a Congressional member from my client’s state told me that the EZ designation made all the difference in the world for achieving this grant.

      Search daily. Set aside a time every day to search for grant funding opportunities. Check your mail and e-mail for announcements. Read the newspaper, looking for new businesses moving into the state or region. Log onto the Internet and check your state education agency, U.S. Department of Education, and Foundation Center Web sites. Share your findings with members of your grant writing team.

      Be creative. If you cannot find anything relevant to your school’s needs, then try using a search engine, such as Google™ (www.google.com), and type in “math grants,” “computer grants,” “science grants,” “consumer science grants,” “grants for elementary schools,” and so forth in the search box.

      Surf with the pros. Log onto the Web site Welcome to School Grants! (www.schoolgrants.org) and see what you have been missing. Your peers around the country use this free Web site to identify all types of school grants, and to see examples of funded grant applications posted by teachers who have been successful at winning grants for their schools.

      Learning the Lingo to Trump the Competition

      UNDERSTANDING STANDARD GRANT-RELATED LINGO will help you sail through funding agency guidelines and decide if the grant opportunity is right for your school. Every weekday, funding agencies issue grant availability announcements and requests for proposals. You need to be ready to take action as soon as the guidelines are released on the Internet or sent to your school’s key administrative contacts. As a grant writer for your school, once you grasp the lingo—the vocabulary of the grant writing field—you will hit the ground running whenever an announcement comes your way. You will be able to read and understand the technical requirements of the grant application or proposal guidelines and immediately start formulating a response. You will be able to trump the competition!

      Many readers might already be familiar with some of the grantrelated terms covered in this chapter, but please do not skip it. Even teachers who are veteran grant writers can use a refresher.
