- Class of 1969 Tribute Grant - The Norfolk Public Schools Foundation is excited to partner with the members of the NHS Class of 1969 to offer the "Class of 1969 Tribute Grant" to the staff of Norfolk Public Schools. The generous members of this class have created a fund that annually awards money to students or staff of NPS. They alternate award years between a scholarship to a NHS student and a grant to NHS staff. This grant is available solely to grant projects at Norfolk High School. A maximum award amount is $1000 and may fund one large project, or two smaller ones, depending on the project ideas submitted. Representatives of the Class of 1969 will have the opportunity to review the applications and provide a recommendation to the NPSF Grant Selection Team prior to final selection.
