The Freeport Area School District Foundation has established the Classroom Grants Program to support innovative teaching and learning initiatives within the Freeport Area School District. These grants are awarded to enable unique teaching strategies to become reality. Classroom grants put funds directly into the District’s classrooms and often lead to subsequent enhancements of the school’s regular curriculum.
Teachers who wish to apply for a FASDF Classroom Grant should carefully read and fully complete the online Classroom Grant Application 2021-2022. For complete details, application questions, and instructions, download the Classroom Grant Application Package.
Deadline to submit applications to the Foundation is Monday, March 14, 2022 at 5 p.m. Questions? Please email aoneill@fasdf.org.
Anyone wishing to donate to the Classroom Grants Program, or any other FASD Foundation initiative, can contact Amy O'Neill, FASDF Executive Director at aoneill@fasdf.org.
FASDF Classroom Grant donations can be mailed to:
