LCCF awarded just under $10,000 in Classroom Grants to thirty0two Lawrence County teachers through the 2023LCCF Classroom Grant Cycle. The Classroom Grant program is designed to fund small, in-class projects that might not have a typical funding source. The goal is to help teachers provide additional educational projects that are creative, innovative, and stimulate student learning.
“Our teachers work hard to establish a strong educational foundation for our students. Often they spend their own money to provide extra learning opportunities for their students,” said Judy Quyle, Classroom Grants Coordinator. “Through the Classroom Grant program LCCF hopes to not only support the teachers in their essential role in educating our children, but to enhance the learning experience for the children.” The grants fund projects that reinforce the lessons in the classroom and excite the students about what they are learning.
