On May 3, 2023, the DMHSAEA sponsored a Teachers' Appreciation Breakfast at Janis E. Dismus Middle School. Having just expanded its grants program to the Middle School, the DMHSAEA wanted to show the teachers how much they're valued and to bring our grants program to their attention. The event attracted 45 teachers brimming with ideas for new academic activities potentially eligible for our grant support. Many also expressed gratitude for the Breakfast as welcome recognition by an outside organization of their efforts on behalf of Englewood's students.
DMHSAEA's New "We've Got Your Back" Program |
No matter how well-funded, well-intentioned or well-organized a school district may be, there are sometimes shortfalls in classroom supplies that can interfere with learning. Teachers, professionals that they are, often buy these themselves and do not expect to be reimbursed.
The DMHSAEA is changing that because teachers: "We've Got Your Back."
Since September 2021, the DMHSAEA has offered to reimburse each DMHS and JDMS teacher up to $100 per semester for out-of-pocket expenditures for classroom supplies.
Teachers should download our simple reimbursement request form by CLICKING HERE
They should complete the form, add images of the receipts to the bottom, and return it by email to DMHSAEA Board member Andrea Morrisey (sunshine6407631@gmail.com) with "We've Got Your Back" as the subject.
Our treasurer will send a check by US Mail directly to the teacher.
The application form is also being distributed on paper to teachers' mailboxes, but requests must be scanned and emailed to us.
