Glendale schools receive Sonic donations for classroom projects
Posted
Special to Independent Newsmedia
Nine classroom projects in Glendale are among those schools receiving $300,000 in donations from Sonic Drive-In.
As part of its “Limeades for Learning” initiative to fund projects submitted by local teachers, Sonic’s donation supports exceptional teachers' projects via DonorsChoose, a platform that allows individuals to donate directly to public school classroom requests.
The Glendale projects to benefit from the donation are:
Academy Math & Science-Glendale, 4540 W. Glendale Ave., for the project “Night Hawk Closet 1”
Barcelona Elementary School, 6530 N. 44th Ave., for the project “Hats & Gloves to Keep Us Warm!”
Challenger School, 6905 W. Maryland Ave., for the project “Clean Healthy Classroom!”
Challenger School, 6905 W. Maryland Ave., for the project “Snacking like Stellar Students!”
Heritage Elementary School-Glendale, 5312 W. Mountain View Road, for the project “The Heritage Habitat”
Luke Elementary School, 7300 N. Dysart Road, for the project Feeding the Minds
Sunburst Elementary School, 14218 N. 47th Ave., for the project “School Snacks”
Sonic's donation focused on funding classroom projects that are meant to improve the lives of students both in and out of the classroom. From gloves and scarves to keep students warm to healthy snacks to eliminate hunger and keep them focused throughout the school day, these special teacher-submitted requests each look to provide children with comfort whether they're at school or at home.
