Beef in the Classroom Grant Program
The Beef in the Classroom grant program helps teachers buy beef products to be used in middle school and high school Family & Consumer Science and Agriculture classes across the state of Georgia. This program will help educators to strengthen their lessons about beef selection, storage, preparation, nutrition, and food safety by having funds available to buy and prepare beef with their students. The grant reimburses teachers between $50-$250 per year, depending upon class size. This effort is made possible by Georgia cattle farmers and ranchers, through the $1 per head beef checkoff.
