Ideas for ways to make Steller better? Grant Committee has money!
You could be presenting the idea that changes or helps Steller Secondary for years to come. This fund was established to fund projects that make Steller a better place for the community and to directly benefit all who attend.
Your project, costing $500 or more, must be able to fit into the following categories:
1. Does the project make Steller a better place for most everyone?
2. Does the project increase the visibility of Steller within the larger community?
3. Does the project reflect our values of learning through experience?
4. Will the project directly benefit a large group of people, i.e. an entire class or the whole school?
The Grant Committee is a GREAT way to practice your competitive writing and presentation skills. We take the idea of handing out thousands of dollars seriously so come prepared! Students, parents and staff members alike are welcome to submit proposals no later than THURSDAY, OCTOBER 13th(Grant Committee Documents can be found and submitted to Haley in the office).
