The funds will not subsidize the cost of substitute teachers

As a general rule, the funds will not be used to buy or replace capital equipment

The funds will not be used to replace the Board’s or the school’s responsibility to fund the program

As every year is unique, past awards will not be precedent setting. However, preference will be given to first time applicants

Innovative activities will be given priority

Queens Local’s role as a sponsor, shall be fully and publicly recognized
