Excited to announce that we received the $2500 grant from Corteva to fund our fall bed build with Sleep in Heavenly Peace. Part of our Community Service Project, our students build beds for child in need of a bed. Thank you again CORTEVA for helping ensure all children deserve a safe, comfortable place to lay their heads.
