Grant Questions

Who is eligible to receive a Booster Grant?

Boise High academic programs, clubs, and sport teams are eligible for Booster Grants. Faculty members, coaches, and club leaders submit grant applications each year and a grant committee reviews and selects applications for funding based on how well the grant will benefit the BHS student body across the 3 A’s.

Where does grant money come from, and how is it different from membership funds?

Grant money comes from Boost the Brave, our annual community event, and the month-long fundraising campaign that follows. Membership funds come from family and corporate memberships and go to the programs members choose.

What can a grant pay for?

Instructional materials and equipment are eligible, and they become the property of Boise High. Grants cannot cover items the district already funds, consumable items, or teacher training, stipends or salaries.
