Teacher Grant Information
The MSPA funds innovative and creative educational projects and activities which fall outside of the normal school budget. Teachers may submit an application form to Principal Sarah Rubin for her review. The MSPA will then vote on requests at the next MSPA meeting.
The MSPA works hard to fund the abundance of grant requests being made by the Middle School faculty and staff. Maintaining the tradition of supplementing the educational experience for all of our students is our number one goal. With more and more now falling outside of the school budget, the MSPA is seeing a sharp increase in the number of requests.
We would like to thank everyone who participates in the MSPA fundraisers for your generous support. The funds we raise make a real difference in showing support for the Middle School teachers and staff and in creating a more positive learning environment for all Middle School students.

Guidelines
The purpose of the grant program is to provide funding for innovative faculty and staff projects, ideas, and opportunities that would not otherwise be funded by the school budget. There is no such thing as a grant too small. Grant requests larger than $500 should benefit a greater portion of Middle School students. All funds must be used in the current school year; grants will not be carried over.
Unfortunately, the MSPA is not currently able to fund requests for the Explore program.
