About the Nassau BOCES Educational Foundation
 2013/2014 Grant Application

 Grant Applications are no longer being accepted for the 2013/2014 school year.

Please visit us this fall for the 2014/2015 application.

Grant proposals should incorporate the following:
A.  

innovative and creative ideas

B.  

the support of the best research in teaching and learning

C.  

goals that can be replicated and have the potential to serve many Nassau BOCES students

D.  

projects outside the funding of the normal operating budgets

 

Please note: Projects involving the hiring of outside consultants will not be funded by the Foundation. If training is required to implement a curriculum or program requested in a grant, the cost of the training should be included in the curriculum or program cost. However, this training cost should be listed in the project budget.

How will grants be  awarded?

Grant proposals will be reviewed by the Board of Directors of the Educational Foundation. Based on available funds and the merits of individual grants, the Board will select the grants recommended for funding. The Foundation Board will then submit its recommended  grant proposals to the Nassau BOCES Board who will have the final acceptance or rejection of the proposal. If the BOCES Board accepts the grant proposal, a special budget will be set up in the general fund for the operation and expenses of the grant.

 

Please Note:  The application is now an electronic on-line application. You will be prompted to create a profile and create a pass code. You will then be taken to the on-line application. Creating a profile and pass code will allow you to update/complete your application at your convenience at any time. When you return to the application, you will be prompted for your last name and pass code and you can continue to work on your application. When complete, please print out for required signatures. If you have any questions, please email kmurtha@mail.nasboces.org.

 

What Happens If You Are A Successful Applicant?

 If you are awarded a grant, the Foundation will expect regular reports on the progress of your grant. These reports can be provided to the grant liaison who will be assigned to you by the Foundation. You will be required to complete an end of the year final evaluation for your grant. You will also be asked to provide a tri-fold board with pictures and information on your grant for the Nassau BOCES Education Partners Award gala in May. You will also be required to keep all financial records of your grant, including receipts.

You will be asked to fill out a grant evaluation form at the end of the fiscal year in which you received the grant. You are also asked to develop a pictorial record of your grant and have it available for the Nassau BOCES Education Partner Award Gala in March 2013.

 

IF A GRANT IS AWARDED

What Happens if I am a Successful Applicant?
If you are awarded a Grant from the Foundation, the Foundation will expect an interim and final report on your activities. In addition, you will be responsible to keep all records of money spent, receipts and any disbursements which could affect the Grant. 

Finally, you will be asked to fill out a Grant Evaluation form which you will be sent some time in the progress of your Grant. In addition, you may be asked to come to present the results of your Grant to the Foundation Board.

 

ABOVE DISCLAIMER
** Please understand that your willingness to apply for a grant does not necessarily mean the Grant will be approved. Initially, you must obtain the approval of your Building Principal or Supervisor who, if they approve of the idea, will pass it along to the Executive Director of your department. If the Executive Director also agrees that it’s a worthy idea to be funded, he or she will pass it along to the District Superintendent. If the District Superintendent approves, he will pass the application to the Foundation’s Board who will consider it. Please do not forget to sign the application and get the applicable approvals.  Applications will not be considered if all three signatures are not complete.
