Recognition for Educators

The Missoula Education Foundation is committed to recognizing outstanding educators in the Missoula Country Public Schools and fostering innovative learning through grants.

MEF Supports Teachers

The Missoula Education Foundation Student Board developed a process and set criteria for selecting and honoring an exceptional high school teacher. Since then, the MEF Student Board has awarded exceptional teacher awards at the elementary, middle and high school levels. MEF also fosters innovative learning by offering grants for teachers to develop unique classroom programs.

Classroom Grants

Every year, the Missoula Education Foundation awards teachers in MCPS funds to develop unique ideas and projects for their classrooms. These projects promote engagement, enhance the student experience, and provide vibrant learning opportunities. To date, MEF has made more than $250,000 in funding available to MCPS teachers.
