Decatur Education Foundation
Avondale Estates
Do you know those times when teachers or students get together and start dreaming out loud about improving their schools and someone says, “ Wouldn’t it be great if… ”? or “ you know what our school needs? ”
DEF Grants were meant to fuel THOSE ideas, both big and small. DEF understands that our teachers and staff know how best to reach ALL of our students in creative and inspiring ways, and we want to support as many of those ideas as possible.
With these grants we hope to support single-year projects and/or provide seed funds for pilot projects that can then be continued by CSD, PTAs/PTOs, or the schools.
Projects must be approved by School Principal and Wilson Center Staff must have support of their Director .
Travel and Field Trip Requests must show a financial need for students attending. (Example 100 students attending 10 requested financial support.)
It varies based on the project submitted, but historically awards range from $200-$3000.
Any teacher or staff member in the City Schools of Decatur is eligible to apply for funds! We can’t wait to hear your ideas.
