Grants
Booster Club Grant Application is now available!
Deadline is Friday, February 9th, 2023 at 5:00 PM.
The Como Park Booster Club is accepting grant applications from student-led groups, school clubs, sports teams, and departments to assist in providing supplemental financial support for student extracurricular or enrichment programs and opportunities. Applicants may request funds to be used for the remainder of the 2023-2024 school year. If the Booster Club has funds available, there will be a second round of grant applications in the spring that will include funding for Fall 2024.
Grant Application Guidelines:
Como Park Booster Club provides supplemental funding to support extracurricular activities and enrichment programs for students at Como Park Senior High School. All grants from the Booster Club must be spent within 9 months of release.
The Como Park Booster Club generally does not fund the following activities or requests:
End of Season banquets for sports teams, school clubs or small groups of students.
Uniforms (this refers to clothing, shoes, jackets, etc. which are meant to be worn as a regular part of their participation). The Booster Club traditionally expects sports teams and clubs to cover this initial cost.
Requests benefiting individual students. The Booster Club prefers to fund requests that impact groups of students.
Requests for school day equipment or curriculum.
If teams or clubs wish to submit a request for any of the above purposes, they must make the case they are requesting due to specific hardship. If a request is funded for hardship, it does not indicate the Como Park Booster Club will fund this request in the future.
