Congratulations to Amy McGrath and her 6th grade Eagle Valley Middle School classroom for receiving an EFEC Classroom grant for flexible seating and wobble stools, to accommodate students that need to move while learning.

“Thank you so much for your donations to our classroom. The wobble stools have made a huge difference in the learning environment for our sixth grade students.

The wobble stools have given my sixth grade students a few more flexible seating options in our ELA classroom. They often choose to work on the floor with a pillow or at the tall table, but now have the wobble stool option which has been a huge hit! They had asked often about using wobble stools in class, but we didn’t have any in our room. They were so excited to come in and see the addition to our classroom last week.

Thank you again for changing the lives of our students with all of your generous donations.” - Amy

This year, the Education Foundation of Eagle County received an incredible number of classroom grant applications—more than three times the usual amount! Thanks to your generosity and a surprise donation, we’re thrilled to fund a significant portion of these grants.

However, the need still exceeds our resources. That’s why we’ve created the Raise the Grade Classroom Grants Marketplace, offering a way for you to support these important projects. To contribute or learn more, please visit:

Congratulations, Hannah Woodson and her Homestake Peak School Art Classes, for receiving an EFEC Classroom Grant to bring clay and clay tools into the classroom! That’s what we call sculpting success!!!

CLASSROOM GRANT NEED: “With my classroom budget being $200 for about 500 students a year, I am really limited to the type of project we can do. Most of my current projects are made up of paper and drawing/coloring utensils. My hope with this grant would be to bring something more hands-on and exciting to the art room! Each grade level would have a different age-appropriate clay project to complete. With clay, there are a lot of different necessary tools. This grant would allow me to not just purchase the clay but the glazes, tools, and appropriate classroom materials to give clay projects for all of my students! How exciting would that be?!” - Hannah

CLASSROOM GRANT EFFECT: "Some of my grant goodies have arrived!!!!!!! THANK YOU!!" - Hannah
