MEADOW RIDGE!! We are thrilled to award Meadow Ridge with funds for first grade math toolkits, thanks to Roberta Granberg. Providing each student with an individual kit allows them greater access and flexibility in selecting what best supports or extends their learning in the moment. While students already have classroom tools, by creating individual kits, they will have a new opportunity to engage with the tools authentically to explore and make their math thinking visible. Thank you Roberta and Meadow Ridge for making this happen!

BIRCHVIEW x 2!! We are thrilled to support the Birchview Bobcats, thanks to Kristen Fournier and Chris Reynolds. We’ve awarded two grants, one for xylophones and another for a PE equipment refresh. With new xylophones, every student can play and there is expanded access to music clubs. New PE equipment is a must given the constant wear and tear, and the ever expanding interest in physical play and learning. Congrats 💙💛

SUNSET HILL x2!! Thank you to Abbey Stanton and Hilary Farrington for their grant applications to reach more students. The first grant is for games and tools to support our students in recognizing and managing their emotions stemming from biofeedback mental health curriculum. Think heart rate monitors to teach and show how emotions can cause physical changes in our bodies. With these games and tools, students will learn coping strategies and healthy tools for managing big feelings.

The second grant is for more engaging and accessible readers for our students at Sunset Hill! We know that student outcomes soar when they can read. They build confidence by reading texts they can access. This grant provides more of those texts to the school community.

Thank you Abbey and Hilary! We are thrilled to support
