IMTA Funds and EMAT Purchasing: Texas Schools

This article is written specifically for Texas teachers and schools.

Many Texas customers have successfully used their district's IMTA funds for Maneuvering the Middle subscriptions. While we are not personally involved in the process, the steps below are provided to help support the funding process within the state's web portal. 

EMAT Information

You can find details on the disbursement process by visiting this webpage. TEA has also provided instructional videos specific for "Disbursement Request Overview" and "Instructional Materials Disbursement Request".  You can find the training videos here.


To request a disbursement, log into the EMAT system and select the option for "Allotment Disbursement".  Click "Next" to create a new disbursement request.  After selecting "Instructional Materials" from the drop down, you can begin entering the requested information:

MTM Ordering Information

Our MTM ordering process is completely separate from the state EMAT system.  

  • In order to gain access to the resources, you will need to fill out the MTM Order Submission Form where you will be asked to submit a PO and a signed copy of your quote as acceptance of our licensing terms.  
  • Once the order is processed, we will send you an invoice for payment.  Please note, your IMTA funds will NOT be sent to us directly.  You will still need to submit payment to our office via ACH, check or credit card (for orders up to $2,500).

If you have any further questions about our resources, please reach out to us at schools@maneuveringthemiddle.com. Any questions regarding IMTA Funds or the EMAT system, TEA requests that you submit a Help Desk Ticket here.
