Programs
Education
TEAM Foundation believes in investing in our future. That is why we support and promote quality education from Pre-K through 12. Due to continued state and federal budget constraints, our local schools have been forced to reduce programs/activities and are limited in their ability to invest in improvements and new technology. TEAM Foundation strives to fill the gap.
Grants awarded in this area include:
- Robotic Teams
School - Technology (such as stationary and portable computer labs)
- Early Childhood Programs
- STEM Programs
“The donation from TEAM Foundation has provided the district with the opportunity to complete a portable lab and purchase program servers in our district. The portable lab allows integration of technology into instruction. It’s used for: STAR Reading Assessment, NWEA Math/Reading, Assessment, Accelerated Reader, Web quests for various content areas, IMovie projects, AppleWorks Slide Shows, Online registration for high school classes, and Future plans Online.”
