Teachers at 31 North Texas schools received $250 grants from Dallas-based TSG Restaurants and McAlister’s Deli, NBC 5 reported.
The restaurant group’s new Together for Teachers campaign supported projects including classroom podcast equipment and a student-run coffee shop. Another recipient used the grant to furnish a first-year teaching classroom.
These are awarded grants, not an announcement of an open application period.
