Apple Awards

Apple Awards are given to any nominated LPS Staff Member by Lynnfield Public Schools Educator quarterly, with quarters closing October 15th, January 15th, April 15th and June 15th.

To nominate a staff member, just two steps are required:

  1. Make a suggested donation of $25 via Venmo or Paypal to Lynnfield Educational Trust. Any funds raised will be included in our grant-making budget for the year.

  2. Fill out the nomination form and submit it to us.

About LET GRANTS & APPLICATIONS

LET offers two types of grants.

  • Mini-Grants ($0-500): These proposals can be submitted and evaluated at any time.   They will be voted on in the order they are received until such time as the funding  allocated to Mini-Grants has been exhausted for the school year. The school year is defined as beginning on July 1st and ending on June 30th, following the Fiscal Year structure of the Lynnfield Public Schools. These grants are intended to be used for applicants to fund a single innovative idea in a single learning space.

  • Education Grants (exceeding $500): These proposals can be submitted at any time, but are only evaluated twice a year, after the published deadlines for that year. The deadlines for these grant proposals will be sent to building principals and published to our Facebook page. These grants are intended to impact  a wider student audience (e.g. an entire grade).

    • For the 2024-2025 school year, grant application deadlines are:

      • Fall Grants: October 11th, 2024

      • Spring Grants: February 28th, 2025

After completing your grant application, please email it to Karen Panos, Grants Director at LETGRANTS@gmail.com. Lynnfield Educational Trust meets about ten days after the deadline to review and respond to grant applications. This process allows members to review grant applications and generate questions, and for our Grants Director to forward these questions to applicants.
