Welcomes Applications for the
2012 - 2013
Reaching for Success Grants

The Reaching for Success Grant grant is to encourage creative educational programs that will help a school successfully meet its Continuous Improvement Process (CIP) goals. To accomplish this, the Lake Washington Schools Foundation provides financial resources for specific approaches to enhance or expand the curriculum. These approaches are to be consistent with the District’s priorities and grade level targets, as well as in line with the Lake Washington Schools Foundation mission. Grant applications may propose projects that benefit an individual classroom, a specific grade-level, or an entire school.

A grant Q and A session will be on January 11, 2012 at the Resource Center, Curriculum Library from noon to 5pm. This is a drop in session and no RSVP is required.

Summer SchoolDonations help send 105 kids to Core Academic Summer School

Thanks to You, the number of students attending summer school increased this year to 105 (over half of those in attendance) at a cost of $59,393.  This program, for pre-K to 6th grade students, includes  literacy, reading, and math so that they can ‘hit the ground running’ when school starts in the fall.  Your donations helped to send students who would otherwise not be able to attend.  All students in the classroom benefit from having those who attend summer school and are prepared to learn in the fall.  Teachers spend less time in review and more time on new material.  Thanks to Foundation donors for your support.
