Board President Dennis Bearden was on the selection committee and said he was glad to see so many applications and hopes to see even more next year.
"It's great to see all of the different ideas and people really grabbing hold to the fact that they can do some additional things for kids within our district by utilizing this grant," Bearden said.
The funds were made available by donations made at a recent fundraiser called the Trenton Education Foundation Signature Event.
