A limited amount of Olympia Education Foundation grant funding is available this school year for Olympia School District staff who work directly with students. Applications are due by 5 p.m. on Friday, February 17.
These grants, available via a simple application, are enhancing student learning, addressing opportunity gaps and funding opportunities that the district and individual schools cannot, including:
- library and classroom books
- musical instruments that are used in K-5 schools by all students
- intervention tools for students who need assistance catching up as a result of the pandemic
- art projects
- school gardens
- sensory tools to center students so they can engage in learning
Last month the Olympia Education Foundation Board of Trustees approved $38,400 in Teaching & Learning, SEL/Mental Health and Browsers Books grants. This is in addition to the nearly $70,000 in grants approved in October.
