Myra Bleill. Executive Director of the Greenfield Central School Foundation spoke to Kiwanis about the foundations programs. The foundation started as Set a Good Example in 1986 with the name being changed in 2010 and Mrs. Bleill being hired in October 2011.
The Greenfield Central School Foundation is the gateway for private investment in our schools so that Greenfield Central students and teachers have the tools and resources they need to succeed. The Foundation also is proactive in establishing programs that impact our schools to enhance education and build positive character.
Project ARROW is a collaborative project of the Greenfield-Central Community School Corporation and the Greenfield Central School Foundation. This highly successful program matches high school students (mentors) with at-risk students in the seventh and eighth grades, under the supervision of Master Mentors (community leaders). Goal-setting, skill building, and group activities are completed in an informal, supportive format. Each semester, a celebration brings all Project ARROW participants together for large group activities and projects.
E2 or E squared stands for Educations Enrichment grants. The GCSF Educational Enrichment (E2) Grant program benefits students, teachers and schools within G-CCSC. The E2 Grant program has recently expanded its criteria to provide opportunities for enhanced student learning and achievement. Our focus promotes character building plus innovative ways to enhance student learning and achievement.
The Greenfield Central School Foundation offers scholarships to graduating seniors from Greenfield-Central High School, recognizes students for their dedication to being a positive role model, and also honors community and educational leaders for the example they give within the school setting as well as within the community.
The foundation can accept contributions that help specific programs or to honor individuals who worked with the school system. For more information contact Myra Bleill at 317-477-4103.
