Make Dreams Real
John and Bonnie Booker - Advisory Committee Members for the "Make Dream Real" Endowment Fund - presented a check in the amount of $10,000 to the Empire Union School District at the March 7th Board Meeting. "Make Dreams Real” is currently committed to supporting the Outdoor Education programs at the following school districts: Empire, Stanislaus, Riverbank and Salida by way of a matching grant. Mr. & Mrs. Booker pose with 6th grade students from Hughes Elementary School who will be attending the Outdoor Education Program this spring.
Hughes School students, Star Wong, Keisha Lopez, and Alexis Kangas (pictured left to right) recently spoke at a EUSD Board meeting about their experiences with service learning and how the Boyett grant helped them towards funding Outdoor Education. All three noted that they thought the experience was beneficial and they liked knowing that they had earned part of the money needed for the experience.
