Small Grants for Educators, Support Professionals, & Schools

Apply Today for an FY 2025 Grant!

We believe support professionals, educators, administrators, and schools are key partners in advancing our shared mission: to ensure all students succeed in school. To strengthen this collaboration, we provide these partners with small grants to close the opportunity gap, enhance educational opportunities for students and staff, and tap the talent and diversity in the MCPS community.

 

Applications for the 2024-25 academic year (FY 2025) are live! If you are interested in learning more, please create an account or ensure your account information is up-to-date on the MCPSEF Dashboard.
