Subject: CTE teacher receives Target grant Submitted by: CL Fender

Strategic Target : 5.4a

Designed to help bring learning to life for students, a 2014 grant from Target has been awarded to Henry M. Jackson High School Career and Technical Education (CTE) teacher, Rose Smith. Ms. Smith was selected from more than 25,000 applicants from around the country to be among the 5,000 teachers to receive a $700.00 Target Field Trip Grant to help continue the learning experiences students gain outside the classroom.

The grant is part of Target’s ongoing efforts to build strong, safe and healthy communities across the country. These efforts include Target’s long history of giving 5 percent of its profit to communities, which today equals more than $4 million every week. As part of this commitment, Target is on track to give $1 billion for education by the end of 2015 to help kids learn, schools teach and parents and caring adults engage.
