New and Continuing Project Award Recipients for 2022-23.
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. In spring 2019, the Foundation surpassed $1,000,000 in total funding to Falmouth educators.
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.

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.
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.
Partnership Grants
On occasion and depending on available resources, FEF may consider a third type of request outside the normal grant cycle.
