About the Innovation in Education Awards
The Classroom of the Future Foundation (CFF) is proud to host the marquee event in San Diego County for galvanizing the business and education community around innovation in the classroom. On May 16, 2024, CFF will celebrate its 21st annual event to honor a group of classroom programs, educators, and students that model the future of K-12 education.
Following an intensive application and selection process for our Innovation Grant Program, four classroom programs will be recognized at the event for their ability to get students excited about learning and enhance learning outcomes through the effective use of technology. Each classroom awardee will receive a financial grant of $5,000 to help scale this innovative program in their school district.
