Taos Community Foundation Grant

Thursday evening, the Taos Community Foundation awarded our class a grant of $249 to continue the 4th grade subscription to IXL Math for another year. I'm very thankful to the anonymous donor who provided the entire grant, who did so in honor of her late father, a math teacher. Thank you TCF!
