We're excited to announce the WAEF classroom grant program is open for proposals from Wausaukee teachers & staff! Please contact school administration for more information on how to apply.
Since 2019, WAEF has awarded 6 Wausaukee school grants for creative and innovative classroom projects. Visit the Grants page to learn more.
These grants are made possible by generous WHS Alumni donations, thank you! If you are interested in giving back to Wausaukee School, please consider a financial contribution to WAEF. Online donations can be made on our website or checks can be mailed to the school: WAEF, PO Box 258, Wausaukee, WI 54177.
We are accepting grant proposal applications until November 18th, 2022 from teachers, administrators, and school staff for programs planned for the current school year. WAEF connects WHS Alumni and gives back to Wausaukee School. We aspire to encourage academic excellence by awarding classroom grants for innovative and creative projects. The following guidelines will be used by the Foundation Board to award grants:
Dollar amount granted will be $1,000 or less per application for this cycle
In total, programs impact as many students as possible
There is evidence of need for the proposed program
The proposal is clearly articulated and is feasible within the stated timeframe
There is a clear measure of success for the program
To the extent possible, the grants will be spread across different classrooms and departments, also considering previous recipients of grants in prior years
Grants are in alignment with District standards and policies and are not activities normally covered by the District operating budget
Funded programs will be announced after the Board approval process is complete.
