This Week’s Trivia Question: In what year did the East Grand Rapids Schools Foundation first fund 6th grade camp for students starting middle school? (No Googling! First to email Jay Forstner the right answer gets a mention in next week’s Cheat Sheet). The answer to last week’s question was, “Avogadro.” Shannon Soltysiak was the first to get the right answer.

Have a great week! Together, we’re investing in our students, because the future belongs to Pioneers.
