We are pleased to award 3 teacher minigrants in this Fall
award cycle.
Ms. Then will receive $150.00 to create a Fourth grade Comics
Club. As Ms. Then notes, ‘The
educational potential of combining pictures and words has become apparent; in a
world where children are faced with a multiple of electronic gadgets and distractions,
they still love to read comic books!”
Ms. Head will receive $200.00 to purchase software applications
for the IPad mini initiative. The first grade team, along with the ITF and Literacy
Coach of Claxton, was awarded a grant from ACSF to purchase 30 IPad minis, and
no funds remained for purchase of software. This grant will purchase the software
needed.
Ms. Lange was awarded $150.00 to help expand the
Spanish/English Bilingual section of our library. Students from K-5 will be
affected by the expansion of this section in the media center.
Please join the PTO in congratulating these teachers when
you see them!
The spring minigrant deadline will be announced later in the
school year.
