Petaluma Education Foundation Impact Grant
Congrats to Elena Judson, Nicole Moran, Gina Benedetti, Serena Weaver & Rena Salazar. These “rockstar” teachers were awarded a Petaluma Educational Foundation Impact Grant for $5,865!!! Their grant titled “Diverse Classroom Libraries” will allow each teacher to purchase books for their class/grade level that depict characters from diverse backgrounds. EVERY SINGLE Penngrove teacher took time to research the books that they want to purchase for their class. Once the books are purchased the teachers will introduce them at a weekly assembly.
These wonderful grant writers took time during their Fall Break to work on this lengthy application. This really shows the dedication of our teaching staff to the Penngrove students. Please thank these teachers when you see them on campus.
