觅圈资源站

The 觅圈资源站  Grant Management Office provides guidance and support to district teachers, staff members, departments, and schools in securing grant resources that support the 觅圈资源站 Strategic Plan. Our goal is to actively seek supplemental funding and ensure that each grant proposal submitted on behalf of a school or the district is accurate and of the highest quality possible and to provide compliance assistance once a grant is awarded. The office is currently managing 20 active foundation, state and federal grants valued at over $24,000,000.
