Innovation in Learning Environments Grant Winners
2019 Winners
The Kansas City Chapter of the Association for Learning Environments is proud to announce the
winners of our second annual Innovation in Learning Environments Grant. We received 55
applications from districts on both sides of the state line. The board reviewed the applications
anonymously, with all the specific district and name information removed. The submissions
were all well thought out, wonderful ideas on how to impact learning for kids in our area. It was
a difficult decision, but the following 4 entries were selected as winners of $2,000 each for
2019. These winners will share how their efforts created innovation in learning at an A4LE
event in 2020.
