The purpose of the Grants Management Advisory Committee is to direct district efforts toward becoming active and competitive in seeking grants at a local, state, and national level to support school improvement efforts.

To avoid missing a grant deadline:

• Be familiar with the grant approval process. Click Grant Process Forms and
Worksheets or e-mail Marilyn Williams for a copy of JSD's Project Planning and
Proposal Writing Tool Kit.

• Call (567-8378) or e-mail Marilyn Williams as soon as you know you want to apply for a grant requiring Grants Management Advisory Committee Review so the review and signature process can be completed in time to meet the submission deadline.

Grants Management Advisory Committee Review usually requires that grant
proposals be submitted to the Grants Office 7 days prior to the official deadline.

What to Do if Your School Receives a Grant:

If teachers or your school applies for and receives a grant that will serve JSD students, please complete the "School Grant Award Sheet" (Click Grant Process Forms and Worksheets) and submit it to the Grants Office, so the grant can be acknowledged on the Grants web page and the information can be included as part of the grant summary submitted to the JSD Board of
Education.
