JCC Middle School has been awarded one of eight $25,000 grants from Windstream's classroom connections program. Windstream received about 300 applications from schools in 16 states. Public and public charter schools in Windstream’s service area were eligible to apply online and were required to submit a video with their application. Schools were judged on demonstrated need and creativity as well as enthusiasm shown in their application. The other winning schools are from Middlefield, Ohio; Winder, Ga.; Burnside, KY.; El Rito, N.M.; Broken Arrow, Okla.; Concord, N.C.; and Texarkana, Texas. The grant was written to upgrade the computer lab.
