Congrats to recent graduate Isabella Hughes on earning our Merit GPA Scholarship this spring! Wishing you the best of luck on your next chapter at Ringling College of Art and Design!

Last week was Dr Dee Hoge– now on to retirement! Thank you for 30 years of service to Bennington Public Schools with Curriculum Instruction & Assessment, and specifically for all your guidance and support with our Classroom Grants and Teacher Professional Development programs. 🙌

Meet Jamie Moore, one of our All Star Kids Site Directors! She loves working with children, seeing them grow, learning what they're passionate about and creating new crafts with them. We're so lucky to have her join our All Star Kids team 8 months ago! 🙌

Students are back-to-school shopping and several have a TeamMates Mentor on their list! There's still time to become a Mentor and kick off when meetings start this school year. Spend just 30 minutes a week empowering and inspiring a student, through one-on-one, student-led time at their school. Contact Megan at mdetjens@bennps.org or visit teammates.org for details! 🎒✏️

Join us in congratulating recent graduate Ethan Roth on earning the Bunz Family Endowed Scholarship, in addition to our Merit Platinum Scholarship. Wishing you the best of luck on your next chapter at Hillsdale College!
