HAIS is pleased to offer needs-based travel scholarships for Neighbor Island educators to attend the Unlocking Learner Variability Workshop, thanks to the support of the Hawaii Community Foundation.
 
Neighbor Island Schools may apply for a maximum of 3 travel scholarships. The awards are intended to defray the costs of attending the workshop and can be used to cover the following:
- Roundtrip Inter-island airfare to and from the island on which your school is located for all 3 attendees (up to $200 each and does not include upgrades)
- Ground transportation - attendees from the same school are encouraged to use the same mode of transportation to travel to the training (ie. share 1 car rental, 1 taxi, etc. Up to $50)

The total amount granted to any 1 school is not to exceed $650, which includes up to 3 round trip inter-island airfares and shared ground transportation.

Reimbursement of expenses up to the amount of the award will occur upon completion of the event and will only be made once attendance is verified at the workshop. Please note that an itemized expense report along with all receipts must be submitted to HAIS, in order to receive the funding.

Please complete the below application by January 24, 2020. Scholarships will be granted on a first-come, needs basis, as funding is limited. Notifications will be sent upon review. Scholarships may be used to attend either workshop, so long as a workshop is not being offered on the island where your school is located.

Workshop Locations:
February 6 - Oahu, Location TBD
February 13 - Hawai'i Island, Location TBD
