These grants are designed to exceed the thresholds of FEF’s traditional Adopt-A-Grant program in size, scope, and impact, ranging from $5,000 to $40,000 per project.
A Sensory Room Glow Up grant totaling $21,446.75 was awarded to FHS Quest Teacher Kaitlyn Alati. The grant will allow Alati to create a flexible, adaptable sensory space at the school to support students’ health, well-being, and learning, particularly those with sensory needs.
Bales Math Coach Chantell Edmond’s “Bronco Science Lab: Where Everyone is a Scientist!” project received a $18,754.24 grant. This grant will transform science and engineering education at Bales Intermediate, fostering a love for discovery and innovation among all students through hands-on experiences.
These Legacy Grants represent FEF’s commitment to enhancing education and enriching the learning experiences of Friendswood ISD students.
