The Cheshire Education Foundation will provide $20,000 in 2017 to fund a variety of student development and learning opportunities that would not be possible through conventional funding.  The CEF board is encouraging teachers in the Cheshire Public Schools to apply for new “mini-grants” through the office of Superintendent Jeff Solan.

“We want 2017 to be the year of the mini-grant,” said CEF board chair Jane Leukart.  “Our foundation wants to support enhancements to the educational experience of our children that require resources beyond what is included in the school budget.”
