Helping the Teachers
We are pleased to help schools and teachers in the community. The following programs showcase our efforts to support energy education:
Teacher Grant Program: OGE Energy Corp. awards teacher grants up to $1,000, and they are available to teachers at public schools in OG&E and Enogex service territories in Oklahoma and Western Arkansas. Any creative project, which deals with reading, mathematics or science, will be considered. Information about teacher grants is provided during the last semester of the school year. For more information, e-mail OGECOMMUNITYRELATIONSTEAM@OGE.COM.
