Every dollar.
Accounted for.
Last school year, the Foundation invested $70,800.77 directly into Chanute classrooms, students, and programs. Here's exactly where it went.
Invested directly into Chanute classrooms, programs, and student experiences. Plus, our Teacher Supply Room kept stocked all year long.
This year, a landmark gift from the James F Cooper and Jean M Cooper Foundation made two transformational projects possible.
FFA Animal Science Learning Center
Completed this year. A hands-on facility for one of CHS's most active programs.
Childcare Center Renovation
Underway now — renovating a childcare center for Chanute families.
Directly into classrooms
Activities, grants, supplies, scholarships, and senior banners (breakdown above).
