Grant Application Questions

Provide a brief description of the project for which you are requesting funding and why this project is needed at your school.

Describe (with examples) what is innovative about your project.

List facts/data to support statements.

Identify the key goals for this project utilizing SMART (Specific Measurable, Attainable, Realistic and Time-based) Goal format.

Question #1: What is the Purpose and Goal(s) of this project?

Sample Answer

Question #1: What is the Purpose and Goal(s) of this project? Describe (with examples) what is innovative about your project.

The purpose of the Autism Spectrum Disorder On-The-Job Training Program, or ASD Level 1 OJT, is to enable high school seniors with ASD Level 1, formerly known as Asperger's Syndrome, to further develop knowledge and skills to select career options, access community resources, and apply work-related behaviors through guided practice and experiences in school and community work settings. This is a nonpaid community based vocational education training program for students with ASD Level 1.

Transportation is critical for our students because if you cannot GET to a job, then you cannot be employed. Many of our students will never get their driver's license due to executive functioning challenges and anxiety. Travel training promotes the skills necessary for our students with Autism Spectrum Disorder Level 1 to become independent. It gives them the ability to become a valuable employee. Students perform work assignments in various businesses (employment settings) under the direct supervision of school personnel and employees of the business.

Sample Answer

Question #1: What is the Purpose and Goal(s) of this project? Describe (with examples) what is innovative about your project.

The purpose of this project is for students to use specific software to apply their content knowledge in a real-world, practical manner. I teach two different subjects, Career and Technical Education Finance and a class I created called the Innovation class.

There is no textbook or standard curriculum online for either of these classes. I researched online software that would allow my students in my two content areas to apply what they have learned in a practical manner. I want them to get as much real-world exposure as possible.

Sample Answer

Question #1: What is the Purpose and Goal(s) of this project? Identify the key goals for the project.

Our goal is to demonstrate a year's growth in reading with the lowest 25% in each grade level. We are in need of the proper tools to facilitate this program in order to see the learning gains. We are committed to having 100% of our population become proficient readers at every grade level.

Question #2: How will you evaluate your project?

Explain how you will measure the effectiveness of your project based on the goals referenced in your response to question #1.

How will your project benefit your students and improve academic performance?

What specific evaluation measures and tools (pre-/post-test, survey, diagnostic test, etc.) will be used to report on outcomes/outputs of grant?

Sample Answer

Question #2: How will you evaluate your project?

• Teachers will see an increase in scoring on writing assessments given by the classroom teacher and district performance assessments

• Classroom teachers will see an increase in desire to read

• Students will have products from their work such as stories and props made out of Legos to compliment their stories

• Students will share their stories with students, teachers, and parents

• A real benefit of the Lego Story Starter program is that it will be usable year after year. Students will see growth in their writing as they move through the grades at Golden Grove
