At its March meeting, the East Grand Rapids Schools Foundation board approved funding of 34 classroom enhancement grants totaling nearly $100,000 ($96,665.43 to be exact). The approved grants will benefit students at all our schools. 

Elementary school grants include funding for March Book Madness, school musicals, and many more. At the middle school, funded grants include robotics, drama support, dissection materials, and others. High school grants include iPads for the science department, art supplies, and funds to provide equitable access to the orchestra and choir educational trip to Universal Studios and Walt Disney World. A full listing of the funded grants is available on our Funded Grants page.
