| EXECUTIVE SUMMARY | |
The Matching Funds Program was established in 2001-2002 by the Superintendent to assist schools and their partners in raising funds for capital school improvements by matching dollars in any amount up to $50,000. On October 26, 2009, a committee composed of elementary, middle and high school principals and the Facilities Division met to review and update the program procedures to be effective for the 2010-2011 fiscal year. (Revised procedures are attached). District Matching Funds are requested for a Primary K-3 playground that will meet a curriculum need (increase students' outdoor activity), enhance the school facility and advance the School District's vision, mission and goals. |
