    This is a great program for LA teachers. Please consider applying for some sort of activity that will help bring East Asia alive for your students. If you succeed, please do use the forum to tell colleagues what you proposed and how it went.

    I have applied for this grant multiple times and received it each time. There's some paperwork and record keeping involved, but it's a straightforward application. They give out hundreds of grants, and it appears that they give it to pretty much everyone who submits a complete application on time. The only complication is that you have to physically appear in Azusa for the award ceremony. Over time, these grants really add up and can have a major impact on a school's history/social studies curriculum. I highly recommend it.
