At Greenbriar Elementary, students in grades 3–5 are gaining hands-on experience with coding, engineering, and aeronautics through an innovative new Drone Club.

Thanks to funding from the Washington Township Schools Foundation, the club introduces students to the rapidly growing world of drone technology in a way few elementary students have the opportunity to experience.

True North Charts Course for Connection

For the first time in True North Academy’s history, students had the opportunity to join school clubs, thanks to two grants funded by the Washington Township Schools Foundation.

Through the Foundation’s support, True North teachers launched Cultural Connections Club and Guitar Club. Both clubs create opportunities for students to engage with their school community beyond the classroom.
