DescGreat Ideas Grants - the premier program achievement of the Helena Education Foundation. These dollars target Helena Educators who submit pilot education programs for students in the K-12 Helena School District. Competitively based, each educator submits a program description and budget. If successful, the educator is awarded a one-year mini grant based on the standards established by the HEF board. Generally at least 20 educators receive an award that ranges from a low of 1,000 to a high of 3,000 for an annual budget that totals about 40,000. These programs impact between 3000-5000 students. Other student/educator events include Fabulous First a book for every 1st grader, the Harrison Writing Award 4 seniors competitive writing scholarship, and the Vigilante Academy a community volunteer enrichment day for students at each high school.Desc
