Each year through the Education Foundation’s Matching Grant Program and many generous local donations, Okeechobee County School District teachers of students K-12 are be eligible to apply for thousands of dollars in classroom grants. These funds are matched $1 for $1. In 2022, we were able to fund $42,510 in classroom projects and purchase book vending machines for all of our elementary schools!
For information on how you or your business can support our local teachers via the dollar-for-dollar match mini-grant program please contact Alaina Barron at Alaina@edfoundationofokee.org.
