Grants are awarded based on a specific need up to $2,500 maximum in three categories: financial literacy, environmental sustainability, and technology tools.

Sumner High School is one of 49 Western Washington schools awarded community grants by BECU in this, the credit union's 11th year of supporting education projects, a press release announced Thursday.

BECU School Grants are given out each year to local schools to help fund educational materials, programs and events, environmental learning trips, and technology tools such as calculators, microscopes, electronic dictionaries and more. Grants are awarded in three categories: Financial Literacy, Environmental Sustainability, and Technology Tools. Each grant is awarded based on specific need up to a maximum of $2,500.

The funding for recipients will go towards a variety of school programs, from green school certification, to outdoor education and technology for literacy and math. BECU received approximately 84 applications and narrowed it down to 49 based on eligibility of the request, impact on student learning, number of students reached with grant funds, and potential on-going use of the item or program.
