The District 103 PTO invites you to complete a grant application if you are interested in pursuing this financial opportunity available to teachers, administrators, and other educators within our district.
DEADLINE: Please submit your completed application by April 8, 2024. No late entries will be accepted. Before submitting your entry, please review your application with your principal to refine ideas and make sure that other district resources are not available for your project. If your request requires facility changes, please see the application for necessary details.
Once the submission window for entries is closed, the Links to Learning committee will review your application with your Principal and the Assistant Superintendent of Curriculum and Instruction, and will notify all applicants of their funding decision by April 29, 2024.
We will evaluate based on:
- Innovative and educational nature
- Curriculum enhancement potential
- Budget reasonableness
- Direct impact on students
The innovative and educational nature of grants is an important focus. What is the connection to the strategic plan? In most grant cycles, we are here to help you pilot new ideas that might be implemented by the district in the rest of your grade or school if they are successful. In our current cycle, we are open to the supply needs of an entire grade level or team, and will be flexible when considering a larger group application
Should you have any questions on the Links to Learning program, please email Amy Hoopis at amy.e.hoopis@gmail.com.
