The Spencerport Education Foundation (SEF) awarded eight grants for the spring 2021 school year, totaling $2,700 in funding. SEF received project applications from district teachers to provide supplemental resources to enrich and enhance student learning.
The grants support district initiatives in the areas of blended learning and wellness while aligning with the SEF’s mission and vision. Awards were selected based on their alignment with SEF goals, SCSD initiatives, and the merits of the application.
