Projects we have funded
This is a partial list that is always expanding.

4 Macbook Pros & Photoshop software for the Graphic Design class in the High School. Students will be able to learn how to use photoshop, design electronically, work on the yearbook, and be on the same track as students from other schools.
Dyslexia Learning Software
We have funded several grant requests for Dyslexia learning software to help our students with learning challenges be able to succeed and excel with their reading programs. This includes headphones with smart pens, vocabulary enhancer programs, etc.
Stylus Pens for iPads
Students were struggling writing on the iPads so several classrooms have requested grants to have stylus pens to help students be able to write as they would on paper with their iPads.
Flexible Seating
Some of our High School & Elementary classrooms have requested flexible seating desks so students can stand, move, fidget, etc. while in class, helping with their concentration and being able to move while still staying focused.
Interactive Smart Board
This Interactive Smartboard was purchased to be able to do interactive learning where students can actually write on the board as they are learning/completing the learning session
15 PCs & CAD Software
In the Spring 2023 a new CAD class will be introduced in the Swanville School so that students can learn CAD software, how to design 3D images, and build off the designs they create.
Microphone & Speakers
We have funded numerous requests for microphones and speakers for classrooms to assist students being able to hear teachers when providing lessons and also for students to be able to speak in front of their peers loudly enough for all to hear.
Sensory Tools
Many sensory tools have been supplied for the elementary classes to help students be engaged.
Disc Golf Course
Swanville ISP has helped fund an 18 hole disc golf course on the Swanville School property. Construction of this project will start in Spring 2023 with the help of other generous grants.
Weight Room Items
Our weight room appeared to be behind on items needed to help students reach their full potential when learning about their health and how to achieve a healthy lifestyle so funding was provided to help achieve this goal.
Organization & Math/Social Studies Curriculum Items
Several classrooms needed funding to help bring organization into their classrooms to help students succeed. Along with bringing in more math & social studies curriculum.
Care Closet
All of our students need to feel they have what they need to succeed. With this comes the care closet where students can get some of the hygiene products needed as one less thing they need to worry about. This is an awesome addition to our school & for our students success.
Coffee Cart
Our Special Education program is introducing a coffee cart program in Swanville. Our Special Education students will sell products to our faculty to learn the skills of navigating the workforce once they graduate. This will help them to gain stronger people skills, business skills, and overall communication skills to excel at whatever they choose to pursue.
Osmos Learning Devices & Software
Students in special education in Swanville currently have limited resources in regards to special education curriculums and these devices would be used in a way that would allow students to work on basic reading, math, and writing skills in a engaging way.
