At our April 23rd meeting, our students of the month were Aubrey Meza from MC Riley Elementary and Gigi Carter from Red Cedar Elementary. Aubrey is a well-rounded student, who is well prepared and never afraid of a challenge. She serves on the Student Lighthouse Team and has been selected to join advanced ELA classes. Gigi embodies leadership and determination and is passionate about making a positive impact in her community. She is actively engaged in school and community activities and is even trying to start an after-school basketball club for 4th and 5th grade students!”

CART FUND DONATIONS
Do you worry about Alzheimer’s?  We do not have a cure for Alzheimer’s disease, but we must find one.  Finding a cure starts with you.  Every year the CART (Coins for Alzheimer’s Research Trust) Fund gives research grants focused on finding a cure for Alzheimer’s disease. 
 
Have you given to the CART Fund this year?  The CART Fund is dedicated to raising funds to provide “seed” money for cutting edge, high impact research in hopes of finding a cure/prevention for Alzheimer’s disease.  The goal of the CART Fund is to encourage exploratory and developmental Alzheimer’s disease research projects within the United States. This is accomplished by providing financial support for the early and conceptual plans of those projects that may not yet be supported by extensive preliminary data but have the potential to substantially advance biomedical research. These projects should be distinct from those designed to increase knowledge in a well-established area unless they intend to extend previous discoveries toward new directions or applications.
