“ Race for Education has helped support my class through teacher grants that allow us to purchase sheet music, strings, class supplies and instruments. The Race also supports the cultural arts at Powell by bringing visiting artists to the School re residencies and assemblies. This would not be possible without the support of the PTA and the Race for Education.
