IN THE SCHOOL // TEACHER, STAFF & STUDENT GRANTS

Picture
Each year, the PTO sets aside a portion of the budget to give teachers, staff and students the opportunity to pursue a project or idea that supports the mission of Flagstaff Academy. When approving applications, the committee considers the scope of the benefit to Flagstaff Academy's students, the feasibility of the project, the cost of the proposal, and the amount of funds remaining for the year. 

Go to our main "Funded Projects" page to see all that we have funded this year!

Application Process
  • ​Teachers & Staff can apply for a grant through the school during our semi-annual grant cycle. Contact Wayne Granger or Katie Gustafson for more information.
  • Students can apply for a grant by completing this Google form. Student grant applications will be considered as received throughout the year. 

2022-2023 GRANTS

Beast Academy Curriculum for
​the Gifted & Talented Program
Picture
"Having access to Beast Academy practice books has allowed me the opportunity to share 165 activities I have created with teachers in grades 1-5. Additional funds allocated helped purchase binders, sheet protectors and dividers which will be used to make EnVision 2.0 enrichment binders for elementary teachers to use for early finishers, students who need an additional challenge, and to reinforce classroom content." ~Mrs. Benz
 Minecraft Education Edition for
​the Elementary Technology Lab
Picture
"Students in 1st and 2nd grade have been building a house in our Minecraft Education Edition world. It has been a huge hit with the students and they have produced some awesome builds. Thanks again for supporting our students in the Elementary Technology Lab." ~Mr. Kerbel
Snack Pantry
Picture
"Students come in and take one clear pencil box based on their allergen needs which contains 2 healthy snacks for that school day's snack times (one morning and one afternoon). At the end of the day, the student or their teacher returns it empty to me so it can be refilled and restocked. The overall impact is that students are less hungry throughout the day therefore can better focus on learning tasks in the classroom setting. It also improves behavior and a student's attitude towards school in general knowing that this is a safe place where their needs can be met! Thank you so much again for deeming this grant important and looking out for our student community." ~Mrs. Swanson
STEM Tools for 1st Grade
Picture
"The first graders listening to read alouds on their iPad (in left half of picture). They love being able to choose which book they want to listen to and they are able to follow along as the story is being read to them. The right half of the picture shows students having a blast with their STEM boxes. Students are always so creative with their designs. I often have students asking me to take a picture of their project because they are so proud of their work! The STEM boxes often leads to students collaborating and planning their projects in a non-threatening and a no pressure environment." ~Ms. Maughon
