2011 Grant Application Information
The money available for grants has been provided by The Lakewood Educational Foundation (LEF). This grant program is not intended to replace money provided by the local school budget. The sole purpose is for the enrichment of learning in the classroom by using creative and innovative ideas directly or indirectly related to the curriculum. Only Lakewood Public Schools educators are eligible to apply.

To submit an application for LEF grant funds, download the application in either a PDF or Word document format or complete the application online via this website. Follow the instructions on the page on this site for the preferred method of submission.  Friday, September 23, 2011 is the deadline for submitting complete grant applications. Once the application has been either submitted online or delivered to the building principal's office, the applicant has no further responsibility.

Criteria for selecting grant recipients will be creativity, innovation, curriculum impact and integration beyond the normal operating budget, reusability of materials and cost of the project/program. Applications will be reviewed by the LEF Grant Committee and all applicants will be notified of results by Thursday, October 14, 2011 by phone or email. Approved 2011 grant recipients are invited to the LPS School Board meeting on November 7, 2011 to be officially recognized.

We on the board of the foundation truly appreciate all you do as educators in our school district and we welcome the opportunity to empower your creative ideas for an enriched classroom experience.
