EEF Card Information
Education Enhancement Funds (EEF Cards for Teachers)
Education Enhancement Funds (EEF cards) are state funds allocated directly to teachers to purchase authorized classroom supplies, materials, and equipment to support the overall goals of the schools. Allowable purchases are outlined in the Teacher Cardholder Agreement and the FAQ information. Teachers are responsible for retaining adequate documentation of the items purchased and their use within the educational process. MDE randomly audits individual teachers annually.
