Congratulations to Laingsburg teachers and staff for a new round of innovative ideas LEAF is pleased to fund! LEAF board members recently voted to grant funds in excess of $19,000 for the 2011-2012 school year.
We are grateful for the generosity of community members and businesses who support us through individual donations, through corporate sponsorship, and through participation in LEAF's major fundraisers. These grants help to keep Laingsburg's quality of education at a level that allows our students to stay succesful and competitive in today's culture.
This year's exciting LEAF Grants are listed below. Look for more information about individual grants in the local media throughout the remainder of the 2011-2012 school year.
