Thank You ExxonMobil !

Elliott School received a $750. grant from the ExxonMobil Educational Alliance program to support Grade 2 math instruction. Stan Mills with Mills Squeege at 800 North 17th Street worked with Elliott School to secure the grant which is one of 2,400 available to schools across the country served by Exxon or Mobil stations. The grants are made possible by funding from the ExxonMobil Corporation.

The Elliott second graders wrote thank you notes to Stan and included what they know Mathematicians do.

They know "Mathematicians. . .

* "use their brains, work hard, ask a teacher for help, study math facts." (Calvin)
* "always explain their thinking." (Leslie)
* "check their work!" (your friend Fernando)
* "never give up." (Love, Rojin)
* "use part-part-whole mats." (Briceida)
* "always pay attention." (Alex)
* "have stellar strategies." (Love, Landen)
* "always bring homework back." (Love, Zahra’a)
* "like to solve addition, subtraction, multiplication and a little divide." (no name)

They are on their way to becoming scholars in mathematics and we all appreciate Stan as our neighbor and friend!

Giving Back to Elliott is Easy

When you eat you can help. You can give back to Elliott by saving your General Mills, Betty Crocker and Pillsbury products box tops (also known as Box Tops for Education), Campbell's Soup, Swanson and Best Choice Brand labels and then handing them into the office. Companies contribute money back to the school based upon number of labels returned, so make sure you save your box tops and label and return them to help out Elliott.
