So, what do we use the CCS Endowment Fund for? This past school year we funded three projects that were proposed by staff members. Project #3 funded in-classroom Calming Centers for students K-2nd grade! Calming Centers are intended to provide students with regulation tools they can use to obtain and keep body and emotional regulation while remaining in the classroom in order to promote learning and a safe space for all. If you want to help us fund more projects next year, consider making a contribution to the Endowment Fund today! https://www.givelocalmidland.org/organizations/coleman-community-schools #GiveLocalMidland #LEADLikeAComet
