a single shipping address and a single buyer are necessary to qualify
for a quantity discount. 6 FlashMasters purchased for the $190
(delivered) promotional price described in III (above) do not “count”
toward the quantity requirements specified for quantity discounts, but if a school has not previously purchased more than one FlashMaster, it may purchase 6 for $190 (delivered) and simultaneously buy
additional units with the benefit of a quantity discount based on the
number of those additional units.
Note about shipping: Normally, we
are willing to ship as soon as we receive an appropriate purchase
order. If any clarification is needed, please email us at: info@flashmaster.com
or leave voicemail at: 1-800-884-3531 (option 4)
or fax:
1-888-493-4320.
Note about faxed orders: If a
purchase order is faxed, please leave a voicemail or send an email
mentioning the fax and your telephone number
(in case there is a problem with the
reception of the fax).
Funding Possibilities:
Click Here for Ideas for Obtaining Grants for FlashMasters
“Title I” and “IDEA” funds; and
help from a local PTO or PTA
We are not experts on the funding
sources mentioned below, but we do know that each of them has been used
to provide schools with numerous FlashMasters. We urge you to check
with appropriate individuals in your school or school district about
these possibilities.
“IDEA”
funding is under the "Individuals with Disabilities Education Act" and
is very appropriate for funding FlashMasters for special education
needs. The federal government distributes money each year to each of
the states, and school districts or schools then apply for IDEA funding
from their state.
“Title
I” funding is under the federal "Elementary and Secondary
Education Act". It is given to schools that have a significant
percentage of students who are from low-income homes. Again, the funds
are distributed by the federal government to each of the states which
are in turn responsible for making grants to their school districts or
schools.
If these grant programs are not
helpful, possibly a local Parent Teacher
Organization or Parent Teacher
Association (or even just an interested individual) will help.
Free In-Service Training
Although the FlashMaster® is very easy to learn
how to operate, in-service training on the FlashMaster helps educators
learn how to use it more effectively, so that students make even more
progress and even less student and teacher time is needed to do so.
Chuck
Resor (the inventor of the FlashMaster and the owner of
FlashMaster LLC) will provide by telephone up to two free hours of
in-service training to the educators of a school that has purchased at
least 24 FlashMasters in a single purchase, provided that:
A. the training is scheduled with Chuck to take
place within 90 days of the purchase, and
B. the principal of the school (or another individual authorized by
Chuck or his assistant) emails him at
info@flashmaster.com—at least
2 hours prior to the time previously scheduled by Chuck and the school
for the training—that almost every individual participating in the
training:
It is our experience that teachers benefit much
more from the training if they have taken about 30 minutes to first do
these two things.
To clarify any aspect of this free in-service training program, please
call
1-800-884-3531. If requested , the "Assignment"
and the form for recording results can be easily faxed to a school.
