The Education Foundation for Cle Elum-Roslyn is a non-profit organization dedicated to enhancing educational quality for students in the Cle Elum-Roslyn School District. Their mission focuses on raising funds to improve K-12 student learning, aiming to bridge the gap between basic state funding and the resources needed for students to excel academically.
The grant program by the Education Foundation for Cle Elum-Roslyn seeks to fund programs that significantly enhance education within the Cle Elum-Roslyn Public Schools, directly benefiting the district's students. This includes staff development projects and encourages the submission of innovative ideas that offer extraordinary learning experiences beyond the standard curriculum. Specifically, the foundation prioritizes funding for programs that fall into three main categories: STEM programs, technology in the classroom, and arts in education (both fine and performing arts). These areas are deemed critical for equipping students with the necessary tools and experiences to succeed in the 21st century and beyond. Applicants are advised to ensure their funding needs cannot be met through the district’s budget before applying.
