Discovery PTSA Curriculum Grants

Our Discovery PTSA has so much pride in providing curriculum grants that benefit our Discovery students and often our whole Discovery school community. It is exciting and fun to see what staff identify that will enhance our students' learning and school environment. 

 These grants directly benefit our Discovery students and happen because our Discovery's teachers and staff identify a need in the school community and submit a grant application to our PTSA. These grants are entirely funded by donations from Discovery families. Without your donation, these grants are not possible. Join us at our Discovery PTSA General Membership Meetings for current curriculum grant presentations.
