Exciting News for Holy Angels Community School!

Shreveport, La. – A heartwarming event unfolded recently at Holy Angels Community School as a local teacher received a generous $1,500 check from a community initiative aimed at supporting education. The recipient, Lynda Delo, expressed her enthusiasm about the funding, stating her plans to launch a recycling program with her students as the driving force behind it. This initiative not only promises to educate the young minds but also strives to make a positive impact on the environment.

Championing a Green Initiative

Ms. Delo is aiming to create a hands-on, engaging experience for her students by allowing them to take charge of the recycling program. According to her, this is an excellent opportunity to teach children about sustainability, responsibility, and the importance of taking care of our planet. As she put it, “It’s not just about recycling; it’s about creating future stewards of the environment.”

The excitement did not stop there—Holy Angels Community School’s principal Kelly Rouse took a moment to express her gratitude and happiness for Ms. Delo’s project. “She has been a Godsend and an answer to prayer,” Rouse said with a warm smile. “We couldn’t be happier for you Ms. Lynda, but also for you kids because every single cent of that check goes to you for your STEM projects that you love so much.”

The Importance of Community Support

This event highlights the power of community support in education. The $1,500 check is not just a financial boost; it symbolizes a commitment to bettering the future of students in Shreveport. Programs like this remind us of the essential role of every individual in nurturing the leaders of tomorrow.

Parents, teachers, and community members alike have shown an outpouring of support for education through initiatives such as this. It creates a ripple effect that inspires other educators to think outside the box and find innovative ways to engage their students.

Bringing Change One Class at a Time

Have you heard of the One Class at a Time initiative? It’s designed to support teachers like Lynda Delo in their quest to create dynamic learning environments. The program encourages educators to apply for funding that can help implement classroom projects that enhance student learning—whether it be through technology, science programs, or community engagement like recycling. This initiative demonstrates an unwavering belief in the potential of teachers to bring change.

And parents and community members can always play a part too. If you’re interested in helping support local schools, consider advocating for programs that cater to educational initiatives, volunteering, or simply providing moral support for educators striving to make a difference.
