Instructional Enhancements
In order to fulfill our mission of supporting opportunities for learners to succeed confidently in a diverse world, the Foundation provides funding for a wide variety of in-school and co-curricular activities. The award-winning Vermillion Area Robotics Club receives financial assistance from the Foundation to help the team travel to tournaments around the country. To enhance our students’ appreciation for their community and the concept of service, we help buy t-shirts for the annual Tanager Volunteer Day. Four graduating seniors now receive scholarships for higher education pursuits. Through our sponsorship, Leslie Blauman, a national literacy consultant, trained elementary school teachers on reading comprehension strategies and writing skills.
