Open Educational Resources (OER) are teaching and learning materials that are free to use, adapt, and share in order to better serve all students.

Many districts continue to develop or adapt openly licensed resources, creating valuable opportunities for collaboration and reducing duplication of effort. However, the small, competitive grants that have supported districts in developing their own OER core or unit-level instructional materials will not be offered for the 2025–2026 school year.

Information regarding the 2026–2027 school year will be shared as details become available.

Details about all grant-funded programs can be found in the reports detailing past grant awards below.

Visit the Washington OER Hub to explore grantee-created work as well as many other high-quality instructional materials developed by OSPI contractors and collaborators.
