2023-2024 SCSF Teacher Grant Application
Grant applications should be made 60 days in advance of the month of need, to assure timely consideration. Grant requests must meet the requirements noted on the form below and indicate the principal’s awareness of the request. Grant applications should include a description of efforts to obtain funding or support from other sources. Instructional materials requested should meet SCUSD academic standards and not displace district-provided or district-recommended materials. Grants for field trips and science camps can be awarded when student families are unable to afford the experience. Applicants requesting funding for technology should first determine if the request can be met through donations solicited from local companies by SCUSD or the individual school. The Grants Committee considers the extent to which a school or individual staff member has previously received SCSF support in order to maximize impact across the district.

Grant Request Details
SCSF encourages grant requests from all schools and staff members throughout the district so that awards may be distributed as equitably as possible. Grants must directly benefit students and have a clear educational component. Grants are not made to teachers, parents, or other individuals for attendance at seminars, conferences, continuing education activities, or acting as chaperones. Grants are not made for foreign travel. Grants are not made to fund salaries, stipends, or other forms of compensation to teachers or other individuals, such as substitute teachers, classroom aides, etc. Equipment and educational materials purchased with SCSF funds are the property of the SCUSD. Individuals purchasing such items with SCSF funds must account for them should they leave their current positions. Grant checks are made payable to the schools, not the teachers or other individuals. Checks must be deposited within two weeks even if the funds may not be needed within two weeks. Grant recipients may be be requested to fully account for the expenditure of such funds and should provide SCSF with a photo of the item(s) in use or a testimonial about the utility of the item or thing funded for use on the Foundation's social media pages.

Grant Requests may only be considered if you have informed the principal in advance that you are applying for an SCSF grant. Has the Principal been notified?
*

If your grant is funded, do you agree to: 

1. Send your students' parents a message letting them know that SCSF provided funding and providing a link to our website in case they want to learn more? 

2. Tag SCSF in any social media posts you make related to the grant? 

3. Provide SCSF with at least one photo or video (no student faces!), or student or teacher quotation, or student or teacher thank-you note that we can share on social media?

*
I affirm that if my grant request is funded, I will provide SCSF with a photo of the item(s), trip, or event for which I am requesting funding. SCSF will share the photo on social media, so the photo must not include images of students that allow them to be personally identified.

I accept the terms of the waiver.
