Dear DVHS Teachers,
We are pleased to announce that the DVHS PTSA Teacher Grant application is now open. The DVHS PTSA takes great pride in being able to provide grants to the teachers at our school. Last year, DVHS PTSA awarded 8 grants totaling $5,000 for a variety of items from DVHS Library annual database subscription to curricula support across multiple subjects English, Theater, Science, Social Studies, and Special Education, and 13 grants in the 2019-20 school year.
A DVHS PTSA Teacher Grant can be used for a variety of projects and materials, including but not limited to software, equipment, art supplies, audio-visual equipment, field trips, lab materials etc. This grant must be used in this school year (July 1, 2021 - June 30, 2022) and may not involve any ongoing monetary obligation.
Please submit your request for a Teacher Grant by completing this application form. Grant requests may be of any dollar amount, and supporting documentation is required. Supporting documentation should be uploaded when submitting the application via the link above.
The deadline to submit a Teacher Grant application is September 15, 2021. The applications will be reviewed by a Grants Committee that will arrive at the final decision as a group, and awards are expected to be announced and available in late September.
Teacher grants are available to all full-time DVHS staff who are members of PTSA. To join the DVHS PTSA, please visit the web store and attach a copy of your membership receipt to your application. Applications are not considered complete without PTSA membership, which is only $6 for staff.
