MAKINO FOUNDATION AWARD FOR ENHANCING STUDENT LIFE
The Makino Foundation Award for Enhancing Student Life was established in 1996 by Shigeki Makino, a 1983 graduate of University High School, to recognize and encourage exceptional effort in enhancing the qualify of student life at University High School. The goal for the award is to help the school support its high quality teachers, counselors, and coaches in their efforts to provide extracurricular programming that significantly broadens the educational experience of University Laboratory High School.
The Award for Enhancing Student Life will be given in the form of supplemental budgetary support, awarded on the basis of competitive application using the following general guidelines:
1.All students, faculty, counselors, and coaches are eligible to apply for one award each year. Precedence will be given to those who have not received the award prior to the current year.
- Applications are to be made for special programs or projects that reflect the interests of students or offer students opportunities not otherwise available. These special programs or projects should fall under the umbrella of either a) enrichment activities associated with student organizations, b) leadership development opportunities for students, or c) outreach activities for students. These projects may be new or already in progress.
- Award monies can be spent at the discretion of the recipient(s) for program
materials, activity costs, speakers, or travel expenses. No money will be given
directly to the award recipient in the form of salary or wages.
Awards will be made by a review panel composed of members of the Student Faculty Advisory Committee, and outside subject experts as needed. Committee members may apply during the year they serve, but they must be excluded from discussions and votes pertaining to their proposals. After award monies have been expended, awardees will be asked to report progress on their projects based on the timeline submitted with their application.
