NOTE: Fourth grade students are served through a separate funding program called “Every Kid Outdoors” and are therefore not eligible for the LBL School Grant Program. Enquire about free admission through the 4th Grade Pass Program at this link.

The amount awarded per student will be determined according to the evaluation matrix (see below) as a “not-to-exceed” amount. Criteria such as matching funds from applicant, total funds available in the grant pool, frequency of visits by applicant, percent of free/reduced lunches and other factors may influence the final award.

1 day-use facility visit – $5.00/ student max
2 or more day-use facilities – $10.00/student max
Brandon Springs Group Center – $20.00/student/night max

The teacher(s) responsible for planning and conducting the field trip should complete the application.

Complete your field trip as presented in your proposal. Submit the requested information after the trip including the evaluation form. Consider sending images for our use with parental permission.  Please give us a narrative showing a positive impact upon the students during this visit with nature.

This is no longer a reimbursement style grant.  You will receive a credit to visit the facilities based upon the number of students who actually visit the actual number of day-use facilities or Brandon Springs.

Free/reduced lunch figures reported must be certified by your school administration. Matching funding will increase your chances of receiving a grant.
