Well, here's something a little different. :)
Today, I received word that my school has won $18,000 from a grant written by a co-worker and I to start our engineering and biomedical classes next year! We've already received $8,000+ this year from another grant, plus $500 for lab supplies. And I've written another grant for $10,000, which we won't find out about until Sept.
I AM SO EXCITED! We get to teach AMAZING science classes in the next few years! We are using a program called Project Lead the Way, which uses fantastic hands-on activities and technology to teach engineering and biomedical sciences. Stuff that kids can REALLY USE!
We will be only the 2nd school in Oregon to use the PLTW biomedical program!
It's gonna be pretty wicked. :)

That is awesome! Way to go writing grants and taking charge in your area. Your kids are lucky to have you be their teacher. :)
