PTA Grant Proposals
The PTA intends to distribute grant awards this school year across multiple programs, including Student, Staff, and Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging Grants. Proposals may request funding for projects, activities, field trips, books, equipment or anything else that enhances the school experience for the ACCESS Academy community. We encourage proposals that offer school-wide opportunities to students as well as proposals that will benefit individual classrooms or grade levels. Grant applications are able to be submitted any time in the school year until April 15, 2026. Learn more.

Our Journeys to ACCESS
Finding community and learning at Access Academy
The neighborhood elementary school that my daughter attended prior to ACCESS did not have the resources to meet her needs. By second grade our daughter was complaining that school was boring and that felt like a huge red flag! During a parent-teacher conference we learned that the teacher did not have any books that could challenge or meet the needs of my daughter. We also learned that our daughter was there to help other kids, serving as a teacher helper. I can see the benefit of this if it is paired with challenging work, but it was not. ACCESS has been an incredible experience for my daughter. Not only is she academically challenged, but the school does a truly excellent job of building community, and ensuring that all children feel safe and seen during the school day.
