About this funding
LOCAL ONLY — Ohio Only. The OSLN STEM Education Grant Program supports schools in expanding and sustaining high-quality STEM learning across Ohio. It aims to accelerate sustainable change, helping schools evolve into hubs of interdisciplinary, career-connected teaching and learning. Grants are awarded along three tracks: Ignite STEM ($10,000) for schools beginning their STEM journey, Strengthen STEM ($15,000) for schools building on existing STEM efforts, and Innovate STEM ($15,000) for schools with established STEM systems. The program provides cash awards to implement STEM practices and initiatives.
Eligibility:
Public Ohio schools (public, community/charter, or independent STEM schools) are eligible.
Teams must be ready to begin or expand schoolwide STEM efforts.
The Ignite STEM track is not open to currently designated Ohio STEM or STEAM schools; Strengthen and Innovate tracks are.
