Grants provide an external funding source for schools and specific projects based on a competitive application and AACPS pursues millions of dollars in state and federal funding each year. Our PDM Department reviews small and large grant opportunities to help interested schools, educators, and staff explore funding opportunities to meet their needs.
If you are looking for school-based grant opportunities please contact Michelle Szczepaniak at 410-222-5370.
