Congratulations to Impact Grant Winners!
The
Foundation 2000 for Children has generously awarded Dr.
Senior and Ms. Stewart's science class the "Teacher
Impact Grant" in the amount of $300.00. This grant
is presented to teachers for use in
supporting innovative classroom projects. Ms. Stewart
applied for the grant earlier this year with the hopes
of using the funds to make it possible to fulfill one of
the Georgia State Science Standards through a hands-on
science experience in the form of a field trip. The
awarded funds will make it possible for many students to
be a part of this hands-on science experience
who otherwise might not have had the opportunity.
