Steven M. Sousa, executive vice president and chief operating officer of MutualOne Bank and a MutualOne Charitable Foundation trustee, has announced a $5,000 Foundation grant to the Christa McAuliffe Charter School Foundation.
According to Sousa, the award was made to support the first year of a multi-year capacity building initiative which will include faculty workshops and the development of a strategic plan for narrowing the gap between the highest and lowest performing students.
“The McAuliffe Charter School serves a diverse student body,” said Sousa. “We are pleased to support efforts to help every student meet the school’s high standards for academic and personal success.”
