Proposals may be for projects, activities, books, equipment, or anything that enhances the academic lives of the students at Lawrence Elementary School. While preference is given to proposals offering school-wide access to students, teachers and parents are encouraged to submit proposals that will benefit their individual classrooms or grade level. Please note that staff will be asked to utilize classroom PTO funds already in place before requesting additional funding.
Given the annual budget of $5000 for the grant, and to allow access to all community members, please limit your request to roughly $300 per project or person. Grant request items must not be purchased in advance; items will be purchased after the grant request is approved. The PTO will purchase your items for you unless reimbursement is specifically requested below.
Please email your completed grant proposal to our PTO President (lawrenceptoprez@gmail.com) for consideration by the Lawrence Elementary PTO Board. Grants will be reviewed on the second and fourth Wednesday of each month. Please submit your requests for consideration by Sunday at 9 pm, prior to the aforementioned dates.
