“It is fantastic to see Palisades School District receive money from this grant,” said Staats. “This funding from PDE will help Palisades make necessary improvements to school facilities to keep them safe for both students and teachers.”
"Our students and teachers deserve a safe and healthy environment in which to learn and teach," Labs stated. "This funding is an important investment in facilities improvements that ultimately benefit the future of our students."
