Purpose of the Grant Program:
With the assistance and advice of School District personnel, the Board of Directors has developed several programs, which emphasize the Education Foundation’s mission to provide opportunities to enrich and enhance the quality of education for all FBISD students. All programs will be monitored by the Foundation to ensure that they are effectively meeting this mission.
- Teacher Grants are to enhance, promote and augment classroom instruction in areas not allotted in regular budgetary funds or not eligible for reimbursement from other sources.
- School Site Grants are to allow staff on each campus to identify and address needs, challenges and concerns unique to the campus. The identified area(s) would reflect the school’s mission, statement or philosophy, or campus improvement plan.
- Founders Grants are to allow funding of larger needs that are outside of the funding limits of Teacher and School Site Grants - up to $20,000 - see founders grant guidelines under intent to apply.
