Or general curriculum support answers?) Questions about free and reduced lunch are a little harder.

I don't have an authoritative answer, but having just completed the NASA grant application form too, I can at least tell you what we did! For any school-related questions, since we do not have a school, but a community organization, we answered all such questions as if it pertained solely to our school.

As a result, some of the answers to questions seem a bit odd (only 22 students in the "entire school"), with 0% receiving free/reduced lunch (we don't have such a program at our robotics meetings!) Questions relating to "teachers" we filled out as pertaining to our "coaches" (the primary every-meeting volunteers) with the "corporate/community mentors" referring to the "occasional" volunteers. I don't know if this was exactly the right thing to do, but I think the answers to the written questions clarify our answers to these other questions.
