RUMSON PTO INNOVATION FUND


FACULTY & STAFF: RECEIVE UP TO $2,500 TO IMPLEMENT YOUR NEW PROGRAM OR PROJECT!

 

The Rumson PTO Innovation Fund is an annual fund to support faculty and staff in implementing new programs that will enhance the educational experience of our students. Faculty and staff can apply to receive up to $2,500. There are four distributions per year allowing funding to support new ideas as they arise.  

 

All faculty and staff employed by the Rumson School District are eligible. Faculty and staff can request funds for implementing new programs inclusive of supplies, additional fees, extracurricular stipends, and professional development fees required by the new program. This Innovation Fund is not meant to solely provide classroom supplies. 

 

Applications are accepted any time during the year with reviews and distributions made four times a year. 

 

Applying is easy! Faculty and staff only need to get pre-approval from Dr. B and then submit a video and/or presentation covering the topics contained in the Program Overview, Process, and Requirements.

 

 Please read the full Program Overview, Process, and Requirements.
