Seven schools in southwest Missouri have been chosen to be part of KSPR and Oprah's Big Give Change Your School Challenge. KSPR will award $10,000 to schools that raise money to improve their school and community. For two weeks, schools will raise money for a project or need in their school community. The best performing schools will be awarded thousands of dollars to complete their project. Here are the school and their projects:
Springfield Public School District – Fundraising for a freshman Mentoring Program
Crocker High School – Fundraising for New Computers
Spokane High School – Fundraising for a New Baseball Field
Fair Play High School – Fundraising for Smartboards
Willard High School – Fundraising for a Horse Therapy Program for Disabled Children
Stoutland High School – Fundraising to send Veterans to WW II Memorial in DC
Finley River School – Scholarship for Children with Autism

KSPR News will feature the schools and their efforts in April on KSPR News and kspr.com. You can watch Oprah's Big Give
