The ACS-Hach grant was a $1,500 grant awarded to assist with the purchase of the Vernier Lab interfaces that are currently being used in the Wahoo High School science programs.
The SE-AHEC grant was a $250 grant awarded for "Continuation of Life Saving Skills" for the Wahoo High School anatomy classes for the purchase of manikins, face shields and lung bags for student CPR/First Aid/AED certification training.
Mary Specht, the school nurse for Wahoo Public Schools, also was a tremendous asset in receiving the SE-AHEC grant.
