A classroom wish list can hold big possibilities for students. This November, Western Governors University is inviting Springfield-area K–12 teachers to participate in Fund My Classroom, a campaign celebrating educators during American Education Week.

Selected teachers will receive up to $200 worth of items purchased from their classroom wish lists to support learning, creativity, and connection.

Know a teacher who could benefit? Share this opportunity with them! Teachers may nominate themselves, and colleagues or administrators may submit nominations with the nominee’s permission.

• Nominations close: November 20, 2026, at midnight Mountain Time

• All applicants notified of selection status: By December 18, 2026

• Wish list items delivered or shipped: By February 26, 2027
