FEF Grant Programs
Since 2005, FEF has supported innovative projects that enhance teaching and learning in the Falmouth Public Schools through competitive grant-making programs Grants are for classroom activities, projects and/or staff development that expand access, equity, and opportunities for all students.
Our five types of grants, New Project Grants, Continuing Project Grants, Teacher Opportunity Mini-grants, Student Impact Grants, and Partnership Grants have ranged from single classroom projects to district-wide initiatives, often with community partners, and have impacted all schools, all grades, and all disciplines.
In spring 2019, the Foundation surpassed $1,000,000 in total funding to Falmouth educators.

Project Grants
There are two different types of project grants.
Teacher Opportunity Mini-Grants Mini-grants are awarded on a rolling basis to help cover the cost of unexpected educational opportunities that impact learning. Applications are reviewed and grants awarded throughout the school year, September 1 through June 1 and are limited to $350 per grant. Click here for a Mini-grant application. Ellen Barol Student Impact Grants Ellen Barol Student Impact Grants are awarded to Falmouth public school students who seek to make a difference in their schools or communities. The grants are awarded on a rolling basis throughout the school year and are up to $300. The service activity for which the grant is awarded should positively impact the students’ school or community, must be guided by a teacher and supported by the principal from the students’ school, and include at least two students as co-applicants. Click here for a Student Impact Grant application. Partnership Grants On occasion and depending on available resources, FEF may consider a third type of request outside the normal grant cycle. FEF Partnership Grants serve an identified need, have broad impact, are supported and promoted by the Superintendent of Schools, and include some form of “partnership contribution” from the FPS.
