Classroom Grants
Each year, the Foundation invites teachers and schools across the district to submit proposals for innovative projects that enhance learning in a creative and motivational way. The program is a competitive process which ensures that the highest quality projects are funded.
Grant projects must support one or more of the four District aims:
- Maximize student achievement
- Ensure a safe and positive learning environment where CHARACTER COUNTS!
- Operate with increasing efficiency and effectiveness
- Maintain a quality workforce
Applications are accepted for projects costing up to $10,000. Foundation Directors are assisted by District curriculum experts to determine which projects will have the greatest potential to improve educational experiences of students in a positive and unique way.
