The Apple Grant Program was established to provide an opportunity for kindergarten through 12th grade teachers in the Troy City School District, Overfield School, Miami Montessori, St. Patrick School and Troy Christian School to apply for grants of up to $1,000. The total project budget must not exceed $1,000. Schools must provide the number of students that are Troy residents. Grants should be for projects, equipment, programs or field trips that enhance the educational experiences of their students.
Depending on the school where the applicant teaches, multiple signatures may be required in order to submit a grant application. These include signatures from the applicant, building principal, superintendent, and treasurer. After selecting the your school in the application, signature instructions should automatically appear near the bottom of the page.
The Troy Foundation Distribution Committee will review the requests during their June meeting, with applicants being notified of the Committee’s decisions no later than June 30th each year. Upon completion of the project or program for which a grant is received, the grant recipient is asked to submit a brief final report stating how the funds were used and how the classroom experience was enhanced. For other specific criteria, please refer to the Grant Guidelines.
