The Ensuring Extracurriculars Fund provides financial assistance to students who are at-risk or from low-income households. The goal is to promote equity in district-sponsored extracurriculars that they would otherwise be unable to afford.
Activity directors, principals, and counselors can apply for funding at any time to make extracurricular activities financially more accessible for students. The request process is done on behalf of students and remains confidential.
This can be done through the activity forms provided to students/parents, or through the application form.
Participation in extracurriculars leads to greater success. But for many families, the cost associated with these activities isn’t always in the budget. That’s where the Ensuring Extracurriculars Fund comes in. At Metro, the Fund helped students explore the world of engineering through robotics. Now they can learn, present, and compete alongside other students.
