The Dickinson County chapter of Michigan Association of Retired School Personnel awarded a $125 mini-grant earlier this school year to Patti Milinski, Kingsford Middle School librarian. The grant was used to purchase several books for the Kingsford Middle School Media Center that are now available for students to enjoy. MARSP, which is an organization comprised of retired school personnel, is proud to provide these grants to area teachers to help them purchase materials that, due to budgetary restraints, might otherwise not be available to students. For more information on MARSP, go to the group’s website at www.dcmarsp.webs.com.
