CPEF Grants and Scholarships

Applying for a CPEF Grant...

 

Any Chesterfield Elementary School Staff Member can apply for a CPEF Grant

using the CPEF Grant application that can be downloaded here. 

​

​

 

​

 

 The completed form must reference the following information: 

​

  • Educational reason for the requested funds

  • The amount of the expense

  • The intended population that will be using the requested materials

  • Any relevant information regarding the request

  • Vendor source to purchase the requested item(s) from.

 

The staff member must submit the completed application to the Principal of Instruction and Community      Engagement, Mrs. Coletta Graham at (cgraham@chesterfieldschool.com) and copy the CPEF email address at (thecpef@gmail.com). All grant requests must be approved by administration prior to being voted on by the CPEF members. Once the grant request is approved, it is then submitted to the Chesterfield Board of Education. Once final approval is made, notice is sent to the requesting staff member or members and the CPEF Treasurer in order to set up payment. 

 

The CPEF and its members would like to encourage the requesting staff member to attend the meeting where their particular grant will be discussed in the event there are any questions so as not to delay the approval of funds.

CPEF Scholarship for NBRHS Students

The CPEF is committed to helping students of Chesterfield Elementary School succeed even after they have graduated sixth grade and moved onto middle school and high school.  The Chesterfield Public Education Fund's Donna J. vanVeldhuisen Memorial Scholarship provides a $500 scholarship to a student that attended Chesterfield Elementary School and graduated from Northern Burlington Regional High School. Due to the success of our Boosterthon events, we were able to award two scholarships again this year.

 

The recipients of the 2021 CPEF Scholarship were announced at the NBRHS Senior Awards Night.

Congratulations to Ashlyn Sethi and Ryan Quinlan!
