Great news!  The Kindezi School board found out last week that we have been awarded a $250,000 grant from the Walton Family Foundation to assist us with various school start up costs during this pre-operational year.  The Walton Family Foundation focuses its funding efforts on a number of missions, including addressing K-12 education reform.  As a charter school in one of Walton’s targeted districts with an innovative school model, The Kindezi School met the qualifications and desires of the foundation. This funding will provide a huge boost for Kindezi since local and state funding is limited until after the start of the 2009 school year.
