St. Germaine School launches the Innovation Lab from Germazing Ducks
A place where students can collaborate, grow, and explore curriculum from a new lens.
The Germazing Ducks, a small, volunteer-based fundraising committee shaped and formed by parents, teachers, and staff based out of St. Germaine School, has launched the Innovation Lab, a remarkable feat built around cohesiveness, collaboration and integrity. Since their inception, the Germazing Ducks have raised over $220,000 for the school. Their generosity, warmth, and spirit of giving is unparalleled.
“It is hard to express the magnitude at which the Ducks have supported our school, students, and teachers. Their financial support is invaluable and being thankful is an understatement. They take a lot of pressure off us,” commented Philip O’Rourke, Principal.
The Ducks’ Innovation Lab provides a really incredible learning space for the St. Germaine students. In addition to the $11,000 spent developing the lab, the Germazing Ducks have purchased a new reading and math series for the students, classroom projectors and screens, teacher laptops, a state of the art gym floor, i-pads for younger students, a new office PA system
and more. St. Germaine school and community are thriving and a huge part of that is because of the financial support the Germazing Ducks have been able to provide.
