District+Grants+Information

District Grants Information from Dr. Emanuel:

1) what kind of grants is Sheldon ISD currently receiving?


 * We have received different types of grants: formula grants, discretionary grants, and competitive grants

2) Is there a specific process that the district must go through in order to find, apply for and receive a grant?


 * There are steps to take depending on the type of grant and who is applying for the grant i.e. individual grant, campus grant, or district grant.Individual grants must be completed by the individual person. Limited support can be provided by the office. Campus and district grants are supported by my office.

3) Are there any particular requirements or legal constraints that affect the process of obtaining district-wide grants?


 * One must refer to the eligibility requirements for each grant to determine the ability of obtaining a grant. This information varies based on the grant requirements.

4) Is there a support system for teachers wishing to apply for any individual teacher grant out there or are teachers mostly on their own if they wish to pursue a particular grant?


 * My office can provide limited support depending on the grant. There are some adventures to assist that I can suggest.
