Grants and Awards
The Pasadena Educational Foundation works with our community partners and supporters to provide grants, awards, and scholarships to PUSD teachers, schools, and students.
Every year we award PEF Teacher Grants to help our inspirational teachers take their creative projects from idea to reality by providing them the necessary resources to enhance their classroom experience. In 2017 we awarded a total of $200,000 to Pasadena teachers and principals and provided Field Trip grants for more than 300 field trips.
Grants, awards, and scholarships include: Teacher & Site-wide Grants, Field Trip Grants, Summer Internship stipends, and College Scholarships.
