We know from experience that summer programs are a critical and cost-effective investment in our collective future.
Create a
summer opportunity
for your students.
Summer Program Grant applications due on February 15, 2025.
Our goal is to fund a robust set of programs that help students continue to reengage with school socially, emotionally, and academically. Priorities include continued care and connection for students who experienced barriers to learning; academic and credit recovery; and project-based learning opportunities designed to boost career and college readiness.
Requests may range from $1,000-$30,000. Any employee of the school district may apply, but proposals must receive approval by a school administrator prior to submission.
Deadline for application: February 15. Funding decisions announced in early April.
Applicants should provide a description of how students will benefit from the program, including:
- Number of students the program will serve
- Anticipated educational outcomes
- A brief outline of how you intend to recruit high priority students
- A detailed budget for staffing and other expenses involved in implementation
Priority will be given to requests that show one or more of the following:
- Promise for increasing student achievement and graduation rates
- Project-based learning opportunities designed to boost career and college readiness
- Care and connection for students navigating financial insecurity or experiencing other barriers to learning
- Promise for building social and emotional skills
