Bartlett High School and Wells Station Elementary Both Get Lodge #35 Sponsorship Funds

Every year, Shelby County Metro FOP Lodge #35 donates funds to local schools, in an attempt to help offset some of the un-reimbursed expenses that most teachers incur. This year, Lodge #35 chose to sponsor 8 schools. Wells Station Elementary, Bartlett High School Culinary Arts, Church of the Resurrection Jubilee School, Raleigh Egypt Elementary, Woodstock Middle, Mt Pisgah Middle, Raleigh Bartlett Meadows, and Shelby Oaks Elementary School. Each School received a $1000 check from Shelby County Metro FOP Lodge #35.

Pictured above left, is State Lodge Trustee Claude Berry delivering a $1000 check to Mrs Ethel Ball of Wells Station Elementry. The money will help her 6th grade class in an upcoming field trip.
