Opportunity Overview
The Norman Public School Foundation is accepting Fall 2026 applications for its Classroom Grants and Team Grants supporting teachers and students in Norman Public Schools. The program funds instructional materials, opportunities, experiences, and larger collaborative projects intended to enhance classroom learning.
Funding
Classroom Grant requests may not exceed $1,500 including shipping. Team Grant requests may not exceed $3,000 including shipping. The Foundation does not publish a total Fall 2026 funding pool. No mandatory match or cost share requirement is stated in the public program guidance.
Eligibility and Project Requirements
Classroom Grants are for Norman Public Schools teachers and should directly benefit students through instructional materials, opportunities, or experiences. Each teacher may submit one Classroom Grant application. Team Grants require two or more teachers and are intended for larger scale, innovative, hands on, project based learning, including collaborative or cross curricular projects. A teacher may participate in one Team Grant in addition to one Classroom Grant application.
High school teachers should not request graphing calculators because the school district now provides them. Professional development requests are generally not considered. Team Grant applications must not duplicate Classroom Grant requests.
Deadline and Submission
Fall 2026 applications are due October 11, 2026. The official program page does not publish an exact closing time or time zone. Applications are submitted through the Norman Public School Foundation’s Grant Lifecycle Manager portal. New users must create an account. Existing users who believe their organization is already registered are instructed not to create a duplicate account and may contact Alesha Leemaster at aleshaleemaster@npsfok.org for username assistance.
The Foundation requires applicants to include their name and school only at the beginning of the application. Names and school names may not appear in the grant description because applications are reviewed through a blind evaluation process. The public program page does not enumerate a separate mandatory attachment list; any portal specific fields or uploads should be verified in the live application before submission.
Timeline and Contact
Awardees are scheduled to be announced in early November. The requisition deadline is November 18, 2026, and grant funds expire December 18, 2026. The Norman Public School Foundation lists 405-366-5947 as its main phone number.
N9+ and Dr. Miltie Relevance
N9+ Fit: 0/100. The verified program is a modest classroom and instructional innovation grant. Although past funded projects include technology and science equipment, the published criteria do not establish a legitimate pathway for the Nonagon N9+ device and platform or QC Healthcare, and the $3,000 maximum Team Grant is not a practical basis for forcing a clinical technology proposal. Dr. Miltie and QC Healthcare are not eligible direct applicants under the published teacher and team structure. No outreach is recommended absent a future applicant defined project and authoritative confirmation that the proposed cost and use are allowable.
