2014 Grants
This year, 19 grants were awarded supporting the students of the Saline Area Schools including the "Next Generation Classrooms" strategic grant. This initiative offers students a completely redesigned learning space that affords more student collaboration/communication and provides assignments and projects that are authentic and non-traditional, while encouraging creativity/critical thinking. Students have access to a variety of technology tools (laptops, iPad Minis, multiple collaboration/presentation stations, Smartboard) and online resources to support “anytime and anywhere” learning.
