Grants

The P-H-M Education Foundation is dedicated to supporting our teachers and students through innovative classroom grants. We are proud to provide funds for programs that fall outside the school district’s budget.

We fund a wide array of projects from small items that cost less than $100 to big purchases that are over $1,000.

EVERY purchase we make makes the lives of P-H-M teachers and students more fulfilling and enrich the classroom in immeasurable ways.

The Grant application window officially opens on October 1st. The PDF for traditional grants is available below. We encourage teachers and staff to begin reviewing the Grant requirements now so they can be ready to submit when the window opens.
