Pioneer High School PTSO Mini-Grants Program

The PTSO oversees a grant program to turn School Store profits into supplementary materials for Pioneer classroom teachers, school clubs, athletic teams, and staff. 100% of the store proceeds go to the mini-grants program, made possible by the hundreds of hours of volunteer labor by school store volunteers. The granting program is run by a committee made up of school staff, administrators, and parents. The Pioneer PTSO Board / Committee based on available funds determines how often mini-grant applications are awarded each school year to all Pioneer teachers and coaches. 

Decisions are made based on the following guidelines set forth by the mini-grants committee:

• Those grants directly affecting the academic, social, and emotional growth of our students will be a priority.

• Consideration will be given to the number of students who will benefit from the money requested.

• Maximum mini-grant requests are for $450. Any requests for larger amounts should be made directly to the PTSO.

• Grant monies will not be used to fund personnel, transportation, food or tickets for events, clothing, uniforms or fundraising activities.

• Funds are available to teachers, athletic groups and school-related clubs or functions.

• Once an item is approved and purchased, it becomes the property of Pioneer High School and is to be shared within the department/school.

• Any materials turned in with the application will not be returned.

• Grant requests will not be approved for technology items that would need to be maintained by the school technology staff.

• When completing your application, include a detailed description of what the grant money will be used for and how it will benefit students.

• All applications must be filled out completely in black ink or typed.

• We will not consider applications without Department Chair signature. The current mini-grant application is available here.
