Distance Learning in 3rd Grade!
2020-2021 School Year
MEF funded a webcam for the Trout tank that Mrs. Burkhart has in her 3rd Grade Classroom. Students, families and community members were able to watch their trout grow even when school was virtual. We also funded more books for the 3rd Graders to ensure that all students had a well stocked, reading level appropriate library to keep at home during this challenging time. Below are a few thank you notes that the students wrote to MEF.
