One Class At A Time Supporting Central Oregon Schools

The "One Class At A Time" initiative is a collaborative effort between NewsChannel 21 and Mid Oregon Credit Union designed to enhance educational resources in Central Oregon schools. Each year, the program allocates $5,000 in total, providing $500 grants for various classroom projects that demonstrate creativity and relevance to student learning. Schools are invited to participate by submitting proposals for projects they believe will have a meaningful impact on their students. The awards aim to support imaginative and sustainable ideas, ensuring that the funding directly addresses the needs of the classrooms. The selection process prioritizes projects based on merit, enabling equitable distribution of funds among deserving schools.

The awarded projects are showcased in NewsChannel 21's broadcasts, raising awareness and encouraging community support for local education. This initiative not only enriches the learning experience but also fosters a sense of partnership between the credit union, the media, and the schools. By emphasizing the importance of educational initiatives, "One Class At A Time" serves as a vital resource for enhancing classroom experiences in the region.
