The Verona Foundation for Educational Excellence (VFEE) will hold its third annual Inspiring Excellence Awards on Friday, April 20, from 7:30 to 10:30 p.m.
The awards event, which honors accomplishments by Verona’s public school teachers, will be held at Caldwell University’s Cougar Den. Hors d’oeuvres, wine and beer will be served. Tickets are $50 per person and can be purchased here through April 15.
VFEE solicits donations to fund a comprehensive grant program designed to enhance the educational experiences of Verona’s public school children. District faculty and staff can apply for one of the five core grants to obtain resources to expand, enhance and enrich the classroom learning experience.
VFEE also funds major projects that enable a school, a department, or team access to larger cash awards to further enhance a particular educational initiative. Over the years, VFEE has funded the leasing of a large number of Google Chromebooks, hands-on science programs and a science resource database, and learning tools for special needs students that were designed by students at H.B. Whitehorne.
