Word from WSFEE
The Western Springs Foundation for Educational Excellence (WSFEE) Board is excited to announce the approval of several grants so far this academic year; we will highlight one grant each week in the Principal Updates at each school. This week, we’ll continue to learn more about Renovation for Innovation (R4I) with a quick video tour of a classroom that underwent renovation for the 2019-2020 school year: Mrs. Egan's 4th Grade at Field Park!
If you have a great idea to enhance the learning of our D101 students, but seek the funding, consider submitting a grant request. Please visit WSFEE’s website at www.wsfee.org.
