We are pleased to announce that Baker-Butler was recently awarded five Shannon grants totaling $2436!
As you can see in the ACPS news release here , our second grade teachers won several grants to be used in the classroom this year.
As noted in the story,
"Baker-Butler
Elementary School received funds for five different programs, with teachers
Lee Owen and Lisa Baker submitting two successful grant applications apiece. Owen’s grants will fund a cooking program linked to math instruction and a program that will teach second graders about life cycles as they follow the hatching of quail eggs. One of Baker’s programs will teach second graders how to grow and harvest vegetables and flowers from a garden, and a second program will teach second graders to research and create artifacts that represent ancient Egypt. A fifth new program at the school, led by Lisa Harman, will center on hands-on experiments to teach children about various states of matter."
