FUND-A-NEED, ROUND 1 AWARDS
kikGRANT$ for KSD Kids is the 2021-2022 grant program that offers specific funding for educational needs and special projects. Round 1 awards were announced and have already been implemented in wonderful ways for each Bacich and Kent student — as the grant program affects every grade, K-8.
Thank you to the KSPTA which has been administering the grant program and ensuring the awards process runs smoothly. Together, KIK and the KSPTA encourage innovative ideas for education and know that grants will meet the needs of our schools, teachers, and students interested in trying new things in the classroom.
KIK appreciates the Fund-A-Need donors who generously gave to fund the 2021-2022 grants.
** Round 2 Grant applications are in, and awards will be announced December 13, 2021.
