One of the benefits available to Certificated teachers under the negotiated agreement is being reimbursed for the cost of tuition and fees associated with continuing education. The district provides $10,000 annually for all teachers in aggregate. A teacher does not need to be a member of the Southwest Region Educational Association (SWREA) to be eligible for funding. Requests must be submitted using this document. Funds are available on a first come, first serve basis. The annual maximum per teacher is $1,000. This may be used for a single course or a series of courses. (Each course in a series must be applied for separately.)
