DonorsChoose will ship grant purchases (materials, supplies, equipment, technology, etc.) directly to your school.  REGARDLESS OF DONORSCHOOSE POLICY ON OWNERSHP, GRANT PURCHASES MADE WITH PARTIAL OR FULL FUNDING FROM THE DAVIS EDUCATION FOUNDATION ARE SUBJECT TO DEF POLICY AND BELONG TO DAVIS SCHOOL DISTRICT – NOT THE AWARDED TEACHER OR TEAM.  Grant purchases typically stay within the awarded school.

In the event a teacher who has received Classroom Grant purchases, moves to another school within the school district, that teacher typically takes the purchased item to the new school within the district.  However, the awarded school’s Principal may make the final determination.  Items purchased by a team stay within the department or grade level at the school that received them.
