Please note:  Please use the new and improved Intent to Apply form anytime you plan to apply for a grant. You can access the form from anywhere that you have an internet connection.  We have included hot links in all the usual places: on our intranet site, this Blackboard course, and on the Grants Forecast Calendar.  A few tips: The form should be filled out by the contact person for the grant. Be prepared to complete the form in one sitting, as partially completed forms cannot be saved. When you click on a link to the form, you will be asked to log in to your WCPSS Google account (if you are not already logged in to your WCPSS account). 

For directions on signing in to Google, visit http://google.wcpss.net/getting-started.htm.
