Learning for a Lifetime
We are happy to announce that our Verizon Innovative Learning Grant has been extended for two more years!!!
This grant provides iPads with 5GB per month of data to all our middle school students and valuable training opportunities for our staff. It also qualifies us to apply for additional grants to provide programs for our students.
