PTSA Grants 2025-2026
One of the PTSA’s missions is to support educators' efforts to enhance the academic and overall educational experience of all students at Foothill High School. Grant awards will be considered when funding is not available through alternate sources.
What we Fund
The PTSA is guided by the principle that the Grants Program benefits the entire FHS community and that the funds are utilized in the year in which they are raised. We consider:
- Requests that benefit more than just a few specific students, this school year
- Requests that impact a wide variety of subject areas and/or grade levels
- Requests with a limit of approximately $10 per pupil for any consumable
- A maximum of $500 for student grants (there is no specific limit currently in place for staff or teacher grants)
Who can Apply
The PTSA encourages grant applications from many segments of the FHS community, including:
- Teachers
- Club Leader
- Administrators
- Staff Members, and
- Students
What Grants Can Fund
Grants can fund items including, but not limited to:
- Supplies, materials and equipment including books, magazines and newspapers
- Support for school programs
- Instructional CDs, videos and software
- Staff professional development
- Construction materials for small projects
- Requests that impact under-served school groups or subjects
