SKSR GRANT APPLICATIONS OPEN: HELPFUL


The Sno-King School Retirees (SKSR) annual grant application period is now open. Grant applications must be submitted by November 7.


Each fall, SKSR offers its active members in good standing the opportunity to apply for educational grants of up to $400 to facilitate their work with their students. Grants must have a direct, positive effect/impact on students in their building and meet at least one of the following criteria:

  • Enrich the classroom experience of students,

  • Promote active student involvement,

  • Provide experiences that students may otherwise be unlikely to have at school,

  • Augment existing curriculum.


Past grants have included requests for field trip transportation and admission costs, speaker and student workshop fees, themed books to supplement a unit of study, manipulatives to teach math concepts, materials to create a maker station, materials to support the family component of a school-wide program, supplemental PE equipment, and picture books for school psychologists to teach lessons on topics such as bullying.
