Grants

Since its inception in 2000, the Marlboro Educational Foundation has distributed over $50,000 in 40 grants to Marlboro Township teachers, providing them with a stream of unencumbered monies in support of their ideas on how to enrich the curriculum for their students.

Small grants, ranging from $200-$750 for one teacher, or $750-$1,500 for consortia of teachers/administrators, are available. Applications are reviewed by a peer committee. Grants are generally awarded in the fall and depending on the resources available, sometimes in the spring of each school year.

There are two grants with very specific purposes: -The Vince Parrini grant, which is for middle school language arts teachers. It was set up in memory of language arts teacher, Vince Parrini, who served the district for 42 years and died while in service.-The Ira Adler, Esquire, grant, which is for social studies/civics teachers. It was set up in memory of Ira Adler, one of the charter members of the MEF and the first chair of the teachers’ grant committee. For the 2005-06 school year, the grant is being coordinated by Rita Scalzo and Stacy Schiller. Please contact them if you are interested in participating in this middle schools’ civics project.

To apply for a grant you need to go to the school district's intranet site.
Fall applications are due by October 15; spring applications, when offered, are due by Feb. 15.
