The Foundation recently awarded two grants amounting to a total of $10,800 to the Voorheesville Elementary School.  The first grant of $10,000 will be used to create a list of best practices in teaching methods and assessment of those methods for the purpose of helping students to improve their reading, writing, listening and speaking skills, and to take a more active role in learning.
