2024-25 Classroom Grant Recipients

The Noble Public Schools Foundation is pleased to announce the recipients of its 2024 Classroom Grant Awards, which aim to empower educators and enhance the learning experience for students across Noble Public Schools. This year, the Foundation has awarded grants to innovative projects that support creative teaching and foster academic growth in classrooms from kindergarten through high school and will infuse $31,227 into 40 classrooms in the NPS district.

The Classroom Grant Program provides funding for classroom projects that might otherwise lack the necessary resources. With the goal of enriching student engagement, the Foundation prioritizes initiatives that introduce new technologies, foster hands-on learning, and support diverse educational needs.

“We are excited to support the talented educators in our district who are constantly finding new ways to inspire and motivate our students,” said Sarah Soell, President of the Noble Public Schools Foundation. “These grants are a testament to our commitment to strengthening educational excellence and ensuring every student has the opportunity to succeed. We look forward to seeing these projects come to life in the classroom.”

The grants awarded this year will fund a variety of initiatives, including STEM-focused projects, literacy programs, arts integration, and mental health support initiatives. Some of the highlights include:

  • STEM Snap Circuit Curriculum for hands-on science learning at Hubbard Elementary School, designed to enhance critical thinking and problem-solving skills as students learn about lights, sounds, and circuitry.

  • Literacy and Reading Programs at all K-8 school sites aimed at boosting reading comprehension and fluency for students at all levels.

  • Art and Music Integration projects to encourage creativity and self-expression in younger students at our elementary schools.

  • Mindfulness and Mental Health Support programs designed to help students across the district manage stress and build emotional resilience.

  • Special Education Support curriculum to support everyday life skills and vocational readiness.

The Noble Public Schools Foundation’s Classroom Grant Awards are made possible through generous donations from local businesses, community members, and other partners who believe in the importance of quality education. This partnership between the Foundation and the Noble community continues to make a significant difference in the educational experience for students district-wide.
