The Lakeville Education Foundation is pleased to announce its Educational Improvement IMPACT GRANT program. Grants will be awarded this year in amounts up to $3,000 to support innovative, student-based programs that have the ability to be replicated or adapted district-wide. Guidelines and the application are available online.

Members of the Lakeville Education Foundation Grant Review Committee are selected from the business and education community. The committee will review and judge each grant application focusing on:

2. The potential to significantly impact learning;
3. Clarity;
4. The evaluation design;
5. The ability to be replicated or adapted

(See Types of Grants, Guidelines, Important Considerations and Criteria).

The Foundation will facilitate an annual review of all funded grants. An end-of-year evaluation and budget report will be required from each grant recipient.
