The South Windsor Public Education Fund is a program of the Community Foundation.  The purpose is to provide funds to support projects and programs for the South Windsor Public Schools, to enhance the learning experience and encourage creativity and innovation both for students and teachers at all levels and grades.  The Fund solicits gifts and grants and engages in fundraising to provide resources dedicated to benefit South Windsor public education.  The Public Education Fund was ENDORSED by the South Windsor Board of Education in May 2006 and formally approved by the South Windsor Community Foundation in June 2006.  The Public Education Fund has taken on a project of its own;

• The SWPEF at this time consists of TWO programs/funds. 

The General Fund - This fund is used to fund General grant requests at all grade levels (including the High School).  The grant requests do not HAVE to be (but CAN be) curriculum in nature.

The Innovation Fund - This fund is used to fund High School grant requests that are curriculum in nature.  ie. Grant requests for programs that add to the curriculum at the high school.  This fund attempts to support innovative ideas that will eventually (if successful) become a part of the high school curriculum.

• When someone donates to the SWPEF they have the option of giving to the SWPEF (in this case the money will be allotted to the individual funds at SWPEF's discretion), to the General Fund or to the Innovation Fund.
