The Classroom Enrichment Grant, offered by the Kent Schools Foundation, aims to enhance educational experiences for students in the Kent School District. This initiative supports projects in art, music, STEM, and emotional well-being, among others, with grants typically capped at $500. Educators, including teachers and counselors, are encouraged to apply, ensuring innovative learning opportunities that resonate with students. The Foundation prioritizes applications that align closely with the grant's mission.

The Kent Schools Foundation provides grants that directly benefit Kent School District students. The purpose of the Classroom Enrichment Grant initiative is to fund projects such as art, music, STEM, reading, field trips, social/emotional programs, and unique experiences that enrich student learning in the classroom. Grants help teachers amplify, support, and reinforce their daily curriculum with innovative projects that reach students at their level. Grant awards are typically $500 or less for each application. In limited circumstances, the Foundation may award a grant greater than $500. Applications requesting $500, or less, will be evaluated prior to those which are greater than $500. Each grant application requires approval from the school’s principal.
