BB&T Bank Supports Students through EITC Contribution

11/14/2019

 
Picture
Students in Teacher Michelle and Gwen's K/1 classroom were learning sign language when Michael Petrine and Jeffrey Barnes came to the school with a donation from BB&T Bank to help fund scholarships.  The students gleefully shouted, "thank you!" and signed the letters B B T.  They were very proud of themselves for their cleverness.
When 1st grade student Mari read the dollar amount ($10,000),  written on the check, the room fell momentarily silent until several classmates took in a breath and exhaled with a big "ahhhh. . ."   State College Friends School offers a flexible tuition to families interested in a Quaker education, grounded in the testimonies of simplicity, peace, integrity, community, equality, and stewardship.  The generous contribution from BB&T helps to make this financial assistance possible.  For more information, contact Lori Pacchioli, director of advancement for Friends School.
