ACSD receives grant to benefit Fine Arts programs

The Allamakee Community School District (ACSD) recently received a special donation made to its Fine Arts department. Carole and Stephen Goodale made a $10,000 donation through the Allamakee County Community Foundation (ACCF) with the specification being that the donation be used for the purchasing of equipment and supplies for the ACSD Fine Arts department. As a result of that donation, a kiln has been purchased for Waterville Elementary School, a potter's wheel and electronic keyboard for Waukon High School, a drum set for Waukon Junior High, and a classroom set of glockenspiels and technology for the elementary music program. Pictured above at the donation presentation with one of the West Elementary kindergarten classes are, left to right in the back row, ACSD Superintendent Dave Herold, ACSD elementary music teacher Sarah Schacherer, ACCF Director Betty Steege, and East and West Elementary Schools Principal Ann Hart.
