Academic Projects

The Teacher Classroom Grant Program provides teachers with the funds for the development and implementation of innovative teaching projects. Teachers submit ideas for the projects to the Allocation Committee who prioritizes grants based on imaginative projects to inspire students, generate enthusiasm, and promote academic excellence. The Teacher Classroom Grant Program is funded by the Annual Sapulpa Public Schools Golf Tournament. To date, the Foundation has awarded more than $500,000 in grants to teaching projects.

The Sapulpa Community Scholarship Fund was established in 2006 by an anonymous donation to set up the academic endowment. Three $5,000 scholarships are awarded each year in May. To date, the Foundation has awarded a total of $220,000 to deserving graduating seniors. The Scholarships are funded by the interest earned from the endowment. The fundraiser for the endowment is a letter-writing campaign in the fall concluding on Dec. 31 each year.

Your Investment

The Foundation provides a way to recognize outstanding teamwork; individual contributions of certified, classified, or volunteer personnel in the schools; legislators who seek to influence educational funding and resources at the state or national level; community members who support education; and educators and of parents who champion educational causes.

Your money will go into an endowment fund. The interest earned from this investment will be used exclusively on educational programs. Innovative programs and projects will be encouraged.

The Foundation is supported by a broad spectrum of the community: alumni, parents, businesses, senior citizens, industry, corporations, and supporters of education. You can be a member of a coalition of those who share a commitment to educational excellence.
