Teacher Mini Grants

Did you know that each year the Centennial PTSA funds numerous Teacher Mini Grants?!?
This year the Centennial Teaching Staff has requested about $15,000 in Mini Grants. Over 70% of the Mini Grants have already been funded by PTSA fundraising efforts, and we have just under $5,000 to go!
Everyone should know the great things our teachers have requested help in doing, and we thought maybe parents would rather just contribute straight to the Mini Grant fund, instead of being asked to participate in more fundraisers.
We'd love your help in getting to 100% funded for this school year. Any size of donation makes a difference, and100% of funds donated will go directly to funding Teacher Mini Grants. Take a moment to review some of these great projects, and join in the fun today!

* A note about the mini grant selection process:
In the fall, teachers are given the opportunity to submit requests for Mini Grants. The grants are reviewed by the mini grant chair, VP of Academic Enrichment, Dr. Blackwell, Mrs. Ritchie, and both Co-Presidents. Each Mini Grant is reviewed for the number of students impacted, creativity and innovation, degree to which the mini grant challenges the mind or body to increase academic excellence, and extent to which the project encourages the use of community resources and/or other collaborative efforts. The PTSA works to fund as many of these grants as possible through fundraising in our local community.
If you are able to contribute, our teachers and students will directly benefit. A little or a lot, 100% of your donation will go right into the grant requests. (*there is a small credit card processing fee that our vendor will tack onto your donation). No admin fees, no % back to fundraising platforms. Just 100% into the classrooms our kids love, but never tell us anything about.
