Student Leadership Grants Available from DS Education Foundation

Student Leadership Grants Available from the Dripping Springs Education Foundation.  The education foundation has a long history of recognizing and fostering leadership development among our students.
Last year, they began a pilot program aimed at giving students the opportunity to lead their own service projects. The Foundation is expanding the program this year to include both Middle School and High School students in DSISD.  The grants provide funding to student-led initiatives which will serve the respective campuses or others in the community in a variety of ways. The goal is to empower students to realize their ideas and foster their leadership skills.  Any current DSISD High School or Middle School student may apply for a grant. The project must have a DSISD faculty member sponsor.
For more information please see the 2012-2013 Student Leadership Grant application page located here http://www.dseducationfoundation.org/grants/student-leadership-grants/applications   The deadline for submission is November 16.
