Classrooms are under resourced for today’s learning needs. Creative teachers too-often struggle with a lack of adequate resources to be able to innovate, enhance instruction, and deeply engage students in learning. Changes in science and technology challenge the relevance of instruction and student skill development and can dampen both student and educator enthusiasm, creativity, and interest.
Yadkin County Schools and Shallow Ford Foundation have teamed up to create a charitable fund, supported by community contributions to build a permanent source of supplemental funding to support classroom instruction, career education for at-risk students, and resources for periodic student needs that may arise from exceptional accomplishment and aligned with the YCS vision for student growth, achievement, and well-being. The purpose may be expanded as the fund grows and as additional needs emerge.
In support of its mission to be a light of hope in the life of a child, Mercy and Truth Ministries co-founder and director Rebekah Simpson and board member, Tim Parks, presented a gift of $1,500 to Shallow Ford Foundation’s associate, Dr. Todd Martin, supporting the work of the Yadkin County Education Foundation.
As 18 educators were cleaning up their classrooms for the summer, Advisory Board members of the Yadkin County Education Foundation and Shallow Ford Foundation staff popped in with balloons and a ceremonial check to surprise and congratulate them on their Creative Classroom Grant award.
Dr. Todd Martin has joined the Shallow Ford Foundation to continue the development of the Yadkin County Education Foundation.
Twelve Advisory Board members have been appointed by the Shallow Ford Foundation (SFF) Board of Directors and the Yadkin County School Board
Shallow Ford Foundation has launched a new fund in collaboration with Yadkin County Schools to provide opportunities for creative classroom grants to teachers and other academic support initiatives.
