Congratulations to Tate Elementary School

CONGRATULATIONS to Tate Elementary School! The Georgia Foundation for Public Education Rural Education Fund has awarded the school $10,000 for a StoryWalk Literacy Program. Tate was one of only seven schools in the state awarded the grant.
Tate Elementary School will use its robust outdoor space to implement StoryWalk, a program that promotes literacy, wellness, and movement in communities and neighborhoods across the United States. Tate Elementary School will use the Rural Education Fund grant to purchase books, materials, and supplies to create the Storywalk area. The PHS construction class will help build the Storywalk, and the county library will partner in selecting age-appropriate books.
