This year, Paula McElroy applied for a STEM grant through the LL Foundation. The grant for $15,000.00 was awarded to our district and is renewable for the same amount for the next two years for a total of $45,000.00! The grant will be used this year to fund technology for the Engineering Club and for class. In addition to competition expenses, the monies will help purchase robotics supplies, a new 3-D printer, an oscilloscope, industrial electrical meters, and additional Engineering supplies that can also be used in our science classes.
Each week, the Elementary Wellness team has a random gift card drawing for different departments in our district. The winners thus far have been part of the transportation department, food services, paraprofessionals, and office staff. Thank you winners for your dedication to our Marlette Community Schools.
