Our Community Foundation has awarded its second Teaching Innovator grant to Washington Primary, naming Kimberly Conder a 2024 Foundation Teaching Innovator. The $250 grant will support the creation of a Painted Rock Garden in Conder’s classroom. The grant will enable each student to paint a unique rock, which will be displayed in a rock garden for years to come. Conder believes the garden will be a vibrant addition to the school.
