Grant Program :

In an effort to provide our children with the best possible educational opportunities, we invite you to participate in the WEF Grant Program. WEF Education Grants are intended to benefit students and enable teachers to enhance and enrich the educational program, to encourage superlative instruction and creative, innovative curriculum development. Teachers may want to try a new strategy or approach and need funding for the project or materials. Funding may also be used for visiting artists or professionals.

To streamline the grant process throughout the school year, three submission dates have been established.  The new grant deadlines are May 30th, September 30th and January 30th.

Please note: NEW REQUIREMENT

If you have received a previous grant, your new application will be honored only after the WEF has received your FINAL REPORT for that grant.

The WEF requires follow-up documentation, including a financial report, written narrative, and photographs. A reporting form was mailed to you with the notification of your grant approval. If you need a new reporting form, please contact Barbara Wright at barbarawright535@charter.net or download from this site
