Marshall County High School has been awarded a $35,000 Cash for Classrooms grant from Casey’s to support an important campus improvement project benefiting students and staff.
The grant will fund the installation of a new awning outside the school’s RISE program, which serves students with diverse learning and support needs. This addition will provide covered access to the building, ensuring students can enter and exit safely and comfortably regardless of weather conditions. The image below is similiar to how the new awning will look.
The project is especially meaningful for students who use mobility supports, including wheelchairs, as it will create a more accessible and protected pathway during inclement weather.
Marshall County High School is grateful to receive this Cash for Classrooms grant from Casey’s. This project will make a meaningful difference in the daily experience of RISE students by improving accessibility, comfort, and safety. Casey’s continued investment in Marshall County Schools is greatly appreciated.
"Through Casey's Cash for Classrooms program, our grants are providing meaningful impact, helping create better learning environments and improving the lives of children and teachers. Casey’s is grateful to be in a position to provide support for our communities and the schools and families, who are preparing our next generation of leaders,” said Katie Petru, Director of Community and Communications, at Casey’s.
Installation of the awning is expected to be completed by August 2026.
