For years, Sullivan has been a low-performing school. We are currently following a Turnaround Plan that will undoubtedly produce sustainable gains in our Academic Achievement. The goal of this project is to help transform our school’s physical environment, optimizing student Morale, Motivation, and Learning. 900 students move through our hallways everyday, making our walls prime real estate that can be used to stimulate and build upon their learning. Our hallways just received a fresh coat of paint, old posters were taken down, and our walls are now a blank canvas! With the addition of Bulletin Boards in our hallways, we will display outstanding student work, advertise school dances and athletics, and support students' social & emotional needs through interactive character development displays. Students & staff will come together to decorate each bulletin board, creating an environment that is inspiring and builds a strong sense of school community. Our budget includes one large, 48x96 board that will be displayed in our cafeteria. This will serve as a central place for announcements and connection to community resources. There are four, 2x3 boards for outside each Guidance Counselor's office door. The remaining 8 bulletin boards will be hung in the hallways throughout the building. Also included in the budget, are the basic materials needed to decorate each bulletin board so that staff do not need to pay out of their own pockets. Your donation will help make school wide change that will last for years to come. Please help give our students the best learning experience possible by creating an environment that is Welcoming, Engaging, and Informative. Thank you for your support.
