The North Carolina School Library Media Association is pleased to offer Read2Succeed Grants to NCSLMA members. These grants are available to K-12 media coordinators, in partnership with classroom teachers, for innovative projects that foster integration of media / information skills into the K-12 curriculum. The focus of the Read2Succeed grant program is on individual media coordinators and teachers rather than on district-wide projects. There were many worthy applicants for the 2007-08 Read2Succeed grants. We appreciate all the applicant’s efforts in developing proposals, but we are not able to reward all who apply. We are pleased to announce the winners of the 2007-08 NCSLMA Read2Succeed grants as listed in the chart below. Please join me in congratulating this year’s winners. We look forward to seeing their poster sessions and possible concurrent sessions at the fall 2008 NCSLMA conference. Nancy Tomkovick |
