Grant Qualifications

APPLY FOR A GRANT

Educational grants are the method SFES has chosen to fund the programs and opportunities for the benefit of Suffield students. Grant proposals are welcome from Suffield Public School personnel, including teachers, administrators, or other school staff members, as well as students, individual Suffield citizens, or other organizations. The SFES operates without discrimination as to age, race, religion, gender, or national origin in the consideration of grant requests.

Grants should have clearly defined and realistic goals, as well as a specific and detailed method of implementation. When evaluating a grant proposal, the Foundation will consider whether a project meets the following criteria:

  • Is It Innovative?
  • Is Its Value Significant?
  • Is Its Impact Broad?
  • Is It Sustainable?
  • Approvals Needed: Principal and Superintendent
  • Examples: See below
  • Availability: Grants will be accepted on a rolling submission.
  • Application length: 4 pages
