Demopolis City -
Schools membership
Demopolis is a community
passionate about its school sys-
tem. For almost 20 years, the
Demopolis City Schools
Foundation has worked to sup-
port excellence and innovation
in the classroom by encourag-
grants awarded across the
school system:
"Special education students
at Westside are using iPads to
complete school work using
touchscreen technology.
"US Jones students can use
ing private investment and the Wfi lab on rainy days during
" involvement in the school sys-
tem. For as little as $30, mem-
bership in the Foundation is a
tangible way to directly support
our students and teachers.
Since 1994, the Foundation
has provided over $850,000 in
grants to classroom teachers
through a competitive grant
process. These grants have sup-
ported math and science, music
and drama, foreign languages
and PE equipment, library
books and computers.
This past fall, the Foundation
awarded $50,000 through 23
EE., burning off some energy
before going back to class.
Middle school students are
learning math with interactive
smartboards, resulting in more
engaged students and improved
comprehension.
The High School has a "lap-
top lab" available for use
throughout the school for any
teacher to use.
All of this and more is only
possible because of the generos-
ity of local citizens - individuals
and business who translate their
passion for education into tangi-
ble financial support. This year,
the Foundation's goal is to raise
$50,000 in memberships by
June 30 to continue to fund
innovative ideas from teachers
and support their efforts to give
our children a world-class edu-
cation. "We are-win $5,000
of this goal. IfT aren't a
member, please consider sup-
porting the Foundation this year.
For as little as $30 you really
can make a difference in the
classrooms of Demopolis,"
shares Kim Townsend,
Chairman of the Membership
Committee.
Please join over 200 mem-
bers this year and "Answer the
Call" - show your support for
our school system with a mem-
bership in the Foundation.

by calling the Foundation
offices at 289-2226. You can
