Last Meeting:
Mike Gorman (pictured on the right) gave a presentation at the June 16 meeting pertaining to some of the grants that were made from the Polar Bear Fund. The Polar Bear Fund was started by Northridge Local Schools as an endowment with The Dayton Foundation for funding school related programs that were not covered by school district budgets. Mike provided reports on three of the grants that have been issued for programs initiated by teachers for enhancing and developing students' reading, writing, vocabulary, creative, and organizing skills. The information included descriptions of each program, with a list of materials and cost, plus an evaluation by the teachers. The programs described were a STEM lesson called "cupcake wars" ($200), "Story Starter Core Solution" ($1015.85), and "Art Bingo" ($500). The foundation fund includes money contributed by Northridge Optimist Club, and so far the grants have come from the earnings of the fund, without drawing from the principle. So far all of the applications have come from Morrison Elementary. Grants are also open to applications fromth middle and high school levels. Mike represents our club on the committee that awards the grants, and President Alan thanked Mike for his diligent efforts on behalf of the club.
| Next Meeting: Next week, on Tuesday, June 23, the speakers will be Lynn Wood and Michael Lippert from Muse Machine. |  |

| Community Links: Some links of interest to the Northridge area are posted in the panel at the right (see the red buttons under "Other Northridge Links"). They are for The Northidge Alumni Bear Facts website, the Northridge Schools website, and the Northridge Schools facebook page.
