VEA Mini-Grant

2010-2011 Recipients

[6-10-2010]

Penny Moltane is Cumberland County Educational Support Professional for 2010.  The VEA is very proud of Penny.  She was the first county ESP winner when this award was established.

Since 1994, NJEA has conducted the PRIDE in Public Education campaign, a statewide effort to share public education success and build strong community support for and involvement in our public schools.  As part of this campaign, NJEA provides grants for projects that bring the public school out into the community and the community into the public school.  Each year there are hundreds of local PRIDE grants and this year we are proud to have a generous “piece of the pie.”

The grant funding makes it possible for school to host special workshops, community days, and many other creative activities.  Sometimes the funding supplements activities the school has planned by providing refreshments, meals to participating families, advertising funds, workshop materials and promotional items as gifts.  We want the community and our school families to share in the pride we have for our schools.  We will be providing more detailed information about the projects throughout the school year.
