Grants Available for EP Schools!
Attention Teachers & Staff! FEPS has money! Take time this summer to write a grant application so that you can make a dream come true in your classroom! FEPS offers large grants to staff members in the hopes of providing an incubator for great ideas. We fund ideas, with minimal consumables, that have a potential for encouraging long-term academic success for students. Is there an exciting idea that you have wanted to try, knowing it would lead toward success for students, but do not have the money that would enable you to get it started? Check out our grant process here. Preliminary grant applications are due by October 3rd, 2012.

Teacher Thank You's
As another academic year starts winding down, parents & students are starting to think about how to thank all the amazing teachers that make our schools the wonderful places they are. FEPS has a few suggestions to offer. Does your teacher enjoy golf? Then why not buy them a round of golf in our 2nd Annual Golf Classic that will be held after school ends, on June 11th? Or how about a Present With a Future or a donation to FEPS on behalf of your favorite teacher? Thank you for your ongoing support.
