Teacher/Staff Grants

The Parkview PTSA offers grants to improve student access to quality learning opportunities. Grants are funded entirely through donations to the PTSA and reviewed/approved by a PTSA Grants committee.  We invite proposals from current Parkview teachers or staff.  

In particular, we seek proposals for activities that support student achievement, that fill gaps in funding from other sources, that allow teachers and students to experiment with novel or innovative equipment or experiences, and that provide quality learning opportunities that would not otherwise be available to Parkview students.
