Each year the Pitt County Educational Foundation awards grant funding to Pitt County Schools educators on a competitive basis. IMPACT Grants are monetary awards for innovative and creative classroom projects. Each attendance area has a committee that reviews applications, selects recipients, and evaluates the implementation of each project. In 2023, we awarded $50,000 in funding to teachers across the district for 109 projects. We even awarded funding to a high school senior to create take-home STEM kits for PTA events throughout the county.
This year, in addition to the IMPACT Grants for educators, we are offering funding for high school students to implement INNOVATION grants for projects in their school or to support another Pitt County School. INNOVATION GRANTS are funding opportunities for Pitt County Schools High School Students for projects awarded competitively. Projects should benefit students and/or educators in a Pitt County Schools setting. Grant requests should not exceed $1,000.00. Our goal is to raise $65,000 to fund creative projects and programs that will enhance the educational experiences of our students and teachers. With your help, we can provide the resources and support needed to inspire and empower our outstanding PCS educators and students. |
