BIG CONGRATULATIONS to Leah Milligan from Tulakes Elementary in Putnam City, Oklahoma! 🎉🎉🎉
She and her amazing fourth grade students are the winner of our Oklahoma Maker Shop Giveaway! 💗We are so excited to deliver it to her school soon, fully stocked with amazing Maker resources from ETA hand2mind!!
Andy and I are overjoyed to announce the winners of our national Maker Shop Giveaway...Melissa Taylor and David Kirkland and staff of Cape Fear Elementary, NC!!! 💗💗💗
Their school was recently devastated by Hurricane Florence, and their 8 applications told a collective story of children and teachers that are desperately in need....in need of opportunities, in need of joy, and in need of healing. While we wish we could give away Maker Shops to all 968 applicants, we are hopeful that this one will help one very deserving school as they rebuild together. 💗
Thank you so much to ETA hand2mind for partnering with us to give back in a big way to teachers and students!
Announcement of Oklahoma winner coming very soon!
