Teen Center Grant
Student Support Services has been awarded a grant to fund Teen Center efforts in each high school and is immediately available for schools to use. The bulk of the grant money will go to one high school to create a fully-functioning teen center. The funding includes a 0.50 FTE salary match for a classified employee to staff the teen center. This year Herriman High School has been awarded the bulk of the grant funds to establish a fully-functioning Teen Center operational in Fall 2023. All other high schools were awarded $8,000 to supplement their existing Principals Pantry and supports for homeless/at-risk students.
