ASD Grants Office

The ASD (Discretionary) Grants Office seeks, finds, develops, and wins grants for ASD instructional initiatives.  We specialize in competitive (“discretionary”) grants.  Most of the grants that we produce are for district, multi-school, or school-wide projects for systemic impact.  We also assist program staff, administrators, and teachers in researching and writing grants.  We offer professional development through workshops, in-services, credit courses, and direct work with individuals.

Our goals

		Win competitive grants to advance the instructional goals of the District.
		Foster a system that builds the capacity of the District to win grants.
