OVERTON — Overton Public Schools announced today it received a grant for $3,500 from Bayer Fund, which will be used to purchase a laser engraver to benefit students in the greenhouse, FFA Chapter, and athletic programs.
“We are excited to have our very own laser engraver after using one we got through the ESU maker space labs”, Mr. Seth Ehlers, lead greenhouse educator, said.
This grant will not only provide support to our organization, but also the community we serve by allowing us to make signs in our greenhouse indicating what plants are for sale with name plates. The FFA plans to cut their award ceremony costs by engraving plaques in-house to honor student achievements. The athletic programs plan to honor student successes in various parts of the school, including the wrestling room and at banquets.
