WARSAW — Jefferson Elementary School has been selected to receive a $979 grant from Kosciusko Endowment Youth Services (KEYS), a youth philanthropy program that’s part of the Kosciusko County Community Foundation.
This grant, written and submitted by Jefferson educator Kara Nieter, will provide 3D printing filament to support hands-on engineering projects in the STEM lab.
The funding will empower students at Jefferson to explore engineering, creativity, and design thinking through real-world 3D printing applications. The filament will be used for a variety of student-centered projects across grade levels, further enriching STEM education through hands-on learning.
“We are grateful to KEYS and the Kosciusko County Community Foundation for their continued investment in our students,” said Joshua Wall, Principal of Jefferson Elementary.
“This grant will have a direct impact on our learners, allowing them to prototype, create, and engineer in ways that would not be possible otherwise. We’d also like to extend a special thanks to Mrs. Nieter for her leadership in securing this funding that will greatly benefit our STEM programming.”
