Re: New Michigan Grants for FRC
We have discovered that in order to qualify for any of this grant money, participation on the team must qualify for school credit (i.e. credit hours) for the students. That is what the district employee that attempted to apply for the grant was told by her contact at the Dept of Education in Lansing. She made repeated attempts to clarify this, without success. As our team is not run under or connected with any day-school classes, there is no way to give students credit for participation at this time.
Has anyone else run into this?
There's no way to jump through all the hoops to give students credit for this year, but we are exploring getting this changed for next year.
