Congratulations Ms. Teri Boudreau and the Donovan Elementary Students!
Ms. Boudreau was awarded $500 from the Eastern Illini Electric Coop for her grant request for a Teach the Way They Learn Project!
Ms. Boudreau plans to use the grant dollars to create a store within her classroom that would incorporate the students as both workers and customers.
There would be advertising posters, weekly sales, a cash register, an account ledger to track both spending for the store and what the customer purchases.
Thank you Eastern Illini Electric Cooperative and Ms. Boudreau!

The Psychology class made menus for a zombie restaurant. The goal was to make a creative menu that includes parts of the brain in each dish. The description of the dishes shows what each part of the brain is responsible for. Connor Stahlschmidt, Makayla Austin, and Manny Lopez did an excellent job meeting all requirements, see for yourself!
