Community Education Projects

​

RMS PLAYGROUND REVAMP – JA will work with RMS/RIS staff to help revamp the playground. This project will provide new activities including volleyball and tetherball. New paint will provide new 4-square courts and will allow us to paint the basketball goals. This project works within our focus and provides engagement for older children within RSD.

​

CYCLONE ACHIEVER –  JA will assume the responsibility for arranging and hosting a reception for students, parents, faculty and administration at the conclusion of the Cyclone Achiever Awards Program, which is held in April each year at Russellville High School.

​

PROJECT SCHOOL SUPPLIES/ SPRING SEMESTER REFILL–JA provides school supplies for students in the Russellville School District (K-5) who do not have the funds for supplies during the spring semesters. The supplies are taken from the published school supply list and include backpacks. The students are identified by the school counselors.

​

TEACHER ASSISTED GRANTS (TAG) – TAG provides opportunities for teachers in the Russellville School District to apply for grant funding for innovative projects within their classroom that the district cannot fiscally support. These projects allow the teachers to remain innovative in nature and still maintain the requirements placed on them by the state.  It also instills a sense of wonder in students as they are able to accomplish projects that otherwise would not have access to.  The direct benefit is to the students.
