Sharon Education Foundation Grant

​

​​

​​

 

WHAT CAN GRANT FUNDS BE USED FOR?

​

 

•  Innovative educational projects that fall outside the normal school budget in all areas (e.g., STEAM, physical education, arts and music, social and emotional learning)

​

• Speakers or consultants addressing topics that are relevant to the community’s interests (e.g.,multicultural experiences; diversity, equity and inclusion; social-emotional topics)

​

• Artists or performers who inspire, encourage and enhance students’ exposure to visual and performing arts.

​

​

WHAT PROJECTS ARE NOT ELIGIBLE FOR FUNDING?

​

Grant funds are not intended to replace or relieve existing responsibility for public funding of school programs, or to substitute for normal budget growth and maintenance. Priority will be given to new programs rather than existing projects already funded by other sources, although we will consider adding funding where funding from other sources does not fully cover the program or project. Grants will not be awarded for: salaried positions, substitute teacher stipends, regular school activities and programs, retroactive compensation or capital improvements.
