A.

Comments

State Farm unable to pursue as deadline passed.  Keep as a resource for applying next school year.  Relook at prior to 10/1/2022.  This grant was intended for funding of Academy children to attend the Sandborn camp.  To fund this school year, discussed that school could cover half overall cost.  Fundraise for at least 1/4 of cost and families could provide remaining.  Total cost is $190 per student. Estimated # of students is 16 so total cost $3040.  Camp is 2 nights/3 days.  School would contribute $1520.  Remaining would be between fundraising and families.
