Welcome to our “Forms” page, where you’ll find not only the Apple Awards recognition form, but also the current Grant Application (and examplars)! Please take a look below!

Apple Awards

The Apple Awards celebrate the incredible staff of Lynnfield Public Schools. Every LPS staff member put forward by a community member will receive this special recognition. Apple Awards are presented twice a year, with submission deadlines on January 15th and June 1st.

Each honored staff member will receive:

  • A personalized Apple Award certificate featuring the name of the person who submitted them and the reason for their recognition

  • A commemorative Apple Award magnet to proudly display their well-deserved acknowledgment

How to recognize an LPS staff member (just two steps!):

  1. Make a suggested donation of $25 to the Lynnfield Educational Trust via Venmo or PayPal. All funds raised support our annual grant-making efforts.

  2. Complete and submit the recognition form.

Thank you for helping us shine a light on the amazing people who make Lynnfield Public Schools so special!

About LET GRANTS & APPLICATIONS

LET offers two types of grants.

  • Mini-Grants ($0-500): These proposals can be submitted and evaluated at any time.   They will be voted on in the order they are received until such time as the funding  allocated to Mini-Grants has been exhausted for the school year. The school year is defined as beginning on July 1st and ending on June 30th, following the Fiscal Year structure of the Lynnfield Public Schools. These grants are intended to be used for applicants to fund a single innovative idea in a single learning space.

  • Education Grants (exceeding $500): These proposals can be submitted at any time, but are only evaluated twice a year, after the published deadlines for that year. The deadlines for these grant proposals will be sent to building principals and published to our Facebook page. These grants are intended to impact  a wider student audience (e.g. an entire grade).

    • For the 2024-2025 school year, grant application deadlines are:

      • Fall Grants: October 11th, 2024

      • Spring Grants: February 28th, 2025

After completing your grant application, please email it to Karen Panos, Grants Director at LETGRANTS@gmail.com. Lynnfield Educational Trust meets about ten days after the deadline to review and respond to grant applications. This process allows members to review grant applications and generate questions, and for our Grants Director to forward these questions to applicants.
