WITS ROCHELLE LEE TEACHER AWARD

WITS ROCHELLE LEE TEACHER AWARD


The WITS Rochelle Lee Teacher Award (RLTA) is an award-based grant for Chicago Public Schools (CPS) pre-kindergarten to eighth grade teachers to help them add brand new books to their classroom libraries. CPS teachers apply for the grant and select books to enhance their libraries and receive books that their students may borrow.
