To receive an SSF grant, teachers or school administrators prepare a grant application that is submitted for review by the SSF board. Two grant cycles are administered each school year, one for each semester.
Jenna Holland, SSF president, said, “Twice a year we are excited to see the innovative ways that teachers are conveying concepts and standards to their students. We are so thankful for our donors who make this all possible.”
 SSF bases grant decisions on its Roots and Boots Initiative, which encourages students to explore, appreciate and preserve their rural roots and the remote and rural landscapes that shaped them, while also providing them with the “boots,” or skills, training and experiences to walk into their future prepared and inspired for what is ahead.
