Newton Schools Foundation’s Co-Presidents Karen Carroll Bennett and Karen Manning presented another big check for $215,000 to the Newton Public Schools at the November 9 School Committee meeting. This donation will fund grants awarded to Newton educators during the 2026-27 school year.
Our fall application cycle has just closed, and our Grants Committee is eager to review the 50+ applications from educators across the district seeking funding for new projects, professional development opportunities, and programs that promote equity for Newton students.
Newton Public Schools staff can apply for a grant during our fall (October) and spring (mid-March) application cycles.
