🎉 Shout-Out Alert! 🎉
A huge THANK YOU to Mrs. Staci Anderson for bringing the Daycos Good Donor Grant to our attention! Because of her efforts, the Daycos4Good Donor Advised Fund of the Nebraska Community Foundation has generously awarded Wausa Public Schools a grant of $1,115.20. These funds will be used to enhance our classrooms with flexible and specialized seating and sensory tools.
Why is this important? 🪑 Specialized seating helps us create a more inclusive and adaptable learning environment. It allows students seating that meets their individual needs—whether for movement, comfort, or focus—ultimately boosting engagement, attention, and overall success in the classroom.
👏 Thank you, Mrs. Anderson, and thank you to the Daycos4Good Donor Advised Fund for supporting our students and their diverse learning needs! 🧡💛
