The Classroom Art Grants were instituted for the 20/21 school year in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and the online teaching situation that our school district found itself in. This program put $100 dollars for art materials into the hands of every Cascade School District Teacher who applied.

The response to this program was so positive that we aim to continue it, alongside the Enriched Education program so long as we have funds to do so.

We believe that every school subject has an artistic component. All CSD teachers, regardless of the subject they teach, are eligible to apply for these funds. The only stipulation is that the award money is used to purchase supplies used for an art project during the school year that the funds are awarded.

We are excited to see how these funds will bring art into the classrooms.
