Through Foundation Grants, nearly $5,000 was awarded to these teachers to fund innovative classroom projects, instructional resources, and programs that will positively impact learners across our school. This generosity empowers our teachers to bring their ideas to life and enrich learning for every student. Thank you for believing in our educators and investing in our future.
