Superintendent John Lavoie is pleased to announce that Greater Lawrence Technical School was awarded a $5,000 grant from the Laura Bush Foundation for America’s Libraries.
Greater Lawrence Tech is one of 300 schools across 36 states that was awarded funding. The grant will be used to fund a new collection of books and library materials for the school’s library department.
The Laura Bush Foundation for America’s Libraries was founded in 2002, and is an organization that supports school libraries with the goal of encouraging young students to read. In the past 21 years, the foundation has awarded $21 million in grants to more than 3,600 schools across the country.
“I would like to thank Laura Bush and the Foundation for awarding us with this funding,” said Superintendent Lavoie. “This funding will help us to add and improve our current collection of library books. By updating our collections, it gives our students an opportunity to read new stories and learn new and exciting things.”
