A big thank-you to our Community Partner, @parkland_college , for giving us a tour of its Early College and Career Construction and Automotive Technology classes, Ag Tech program, and Career Exploration Center! These programs give high school juniors and seniors the opportunity to explore career paths while earning dual credit, developing technical skills, obtaining industry-recognized credentials, and earning Parkland College certificates — all while preparing for life after graduation! Through partnerships like this, CUSF helps highlight opportunities that empower local students to build skills, explore their interests, and take meaningful steps toward their futures. @unit4schools @urbana116
@dffeinen visited@gardenhillsacademy to read with students and, through CUSF’s Wisdom Network, shared her experiences with the AVID program at Centennial High School. From inspiring young readers to helping students envision their futures, these moments show how community partnerships can make a difference in public education! @unit4schools #WisdomNetwork
*Grant Spotlight* Centennial & Central High School art students transformed the Sholem Aquatic Center's lazy river with underwater-themed ceramic tiles! Thanks to CUSF grants, projects like this are possible. Donate at cuschoolsfoundation.org to support more initiatives like this! 💚 #ChampaignUnit4Schools #CentennialHighSchool #ChampaignCentralHighSchool @unit4schools @chs.maroons
