2010 Beth Ann Rogers Literacy Initiative grant winners

The ATPE Foundation is dedicated to the advancement of public education and the success of Texas schoolchildren through educator recruitment and retention efforts, literacy initiatives, and technology programs. Through the Beth Ann Rogers Literacy Initiative, the foundation provides $1,000 grants to Texas public school libraries each year for the purchase of literacy materials and the modernization of literacy resources.
