2021 Grants in Action
Twenty FCS staff members were recently awarded just under $4,000 in mini grant funding! We can't wait to see their innovative ideas come to life in classrooms around the district. "Brain Structure", "On Fire for Reading", "Helping Hand", "Writing with Mr. Potato Head", "Spanish Arms" and "Conceptual Mathematics" are just a few project titles approved for funding that will offer new ways to engage and motivate students and extend their learning.
