INCENTIVE
PROGRAM
|
In
an effort to pursue alternative sources of revenue, the Board of Education
and the administration have developed a program which provides incentives for
successful grants for pre-approved projects. The Board invites all staff and
members of the public to submit grant proposals to support district programs
for the 2008-2009 school year.
These projects include, but are not limited to, instructional
programs, facility projects, security, technology, energy conservation, and
character education. Incentive
payments for successful grants are as follows: Amount of Grant Award à Less than $3,000 $ 250 à $3,000 to $9,999 $ 500 à More than $10,000 $1,000 Incentive
payments are limited to one award per grant. All
projects must be approved at the department and/or school level, and then by a central office
administrator, prior to submission.
The individual(s) submitting the grant will be responsible for any and
all assessments and reporting of the grant. The Board encourages members of the
staff and public to urge corporations to contribute to district programs. The
incentive program excludes entitlement grants, e.g., NCLB, IDEA, non-public,
and Education Foundation grants.
Donations are not eligible for the incentive. To find and apply for federal
government grants, go to: www.grants.gov
