We had various fundraisers to help raise money with incentives for the students who participated. ]]> 2019-11-17 23:07:00 UTC https://padlet.com/kdboyce/1l7ka48vh678/wish/412450850 Grant Writing kdboyce https://padlet.com/kdboyce/1l7ka48vh678/wish/412452136 I sent a team of teachers to a grant writing workshop. Those teachers wrote grants to get us laptops and iPads so that we would have a one to one ratio along with what we already have in the school. They also wrote grants to assist teachers in getting other items on their needs/wish list. ]]> 2019-11-17 23:14:34 UTC https://padlet.com/kdboyce/1l7ka48vh678/wish/412452136 Community Events kdboyce https://padlet.com/kdboyce/1l7ka48vh678/wish/412453399 We had various events where the community came in:
