Shades Mountain Elementary receives grant for trail project

On behalf of the Shades Mountain community, students, teachers and families, Shades Mountain Elementary School would like to thank Paul DeMarco for the support of their school. The community service grant of $1,000 was directed to the sports field/nature trail project. Along with the PTO matching the funds, they were able to purchase four metal picnic tables. These tables will last us for many years to come. 

This area has been a work in progress for six years. Paul DeMarco’s support of the initial effort helped establish a partnership with the community. The area is beautiful and provides a myriad of wonderful learning opportunities to students during the school day.
