Thank you to the East Windsor Education Foundation for generously funding the Library’s grant proposal to purchase updated geography materials for EWMS.
The EWEF gave us $608 to purchase new almanacs, atlases, maps and geography games for the Library. Next year, we will have nice new resources to help us prepare and study for the National Geography Bee and help with student research on the U.S. and foreign countries!
