TEACHER GRANTS

In the 2016 - '17 school year, the Foundation focused its time and resources on providing educational grants to teachers at West U Elementary School.  The Foundation awarded a variety of grants across grade levels, including

  • STEM training workshops

  • SMART Board pilot program

  • The creation of a new "science sanctuary" outdoor learning area

In addition, the Foundation funded an acoustic study for new sound panels in the school cafeteria.  The sound panels were installed and, ultimately, have helped decrease noise levels during lunch periods and improved sound for school performances.

LIBRARY

Thanks to your generosity the WUES library was expanded and completely refurbished.  New shelving, books and an outdoor reading courtyard was added.
