In 2021/2022, prior to the expansion, we had 32 students, 4 full time teachers, and 4 part-time teachers. In 2022/2023 with the additional space, we increased our capacity to have 40 students, 5 full-time teachers, 5 part-time teachers. In the coming school year, now that the renovation is complete, we are expanding working to find teachers so that we can have 42 students, 6 full-time teachers, 5-part-time teachers, and increase our after-school programming as well as expand our hours earlier in the morning to accommodate working parents. In total, our LIFT grant has made it possible to increase our spaces for students by 10, serve 10 more working families with childcare, and offer 2 full-time and 1 part-time job to the community. And generally the addition has improved the function of all our program offerings in ways that greatly support our teachers and parents.” – Maureen Fox, Director https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5efbc220289b88030fbedb61/e0efd9bc-ad91-4559-b160-22e91a1009dc/C10-plus-radio-stations-Logo-1.jpg Testimonials - Make it stand out “The Forward Fremont County initiative has been making waves since it passed in August 2020, and it’s set to return to the ballot in November 2024. The significance of this tax cannot be overstated. It has been the financial backbone for county-wide transportation services and has provided essential grants for economic development projects since April 1, 2021. “This tax isn’t just about numbers; it’s about the air service that connects our community to the world, the ground transportation that keeps our county moving, and the economic development funds that empower each community within Fremont County. “It was a pleasure to sit down with Julie Buller and Kevin Kershisnik themselves. I’ve had the privilege of seeing them at countless events and informational meetings, working tirelessly to make Fremont County a better place for everyone. Julie Buller, with her unwavering dedication and vision, has commitment to economic development and community welfare is truly inspiring. Kevin Kershisnik, too, has been a stalwart advocate for our county’s growth. Together, they form a dynamic duo that has contributed significantly to the success of this initiative.” Listen to the full podcast with County10 here. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5efbc220289b88030fbedb61/95a51450-f6b1-4bda-bfe1-ebf59faa964a/Screenshot+2024-07-29+at+3.27.34%E2%80%AFPM.png Testimonials Marcy McBeath, a resident of Fremont County, gives her perspective on the 1/2% sales tax. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5efbc220289b88030fbedb61/6f315b3a-2f23-480d-a8f9-1216546a5a33/Screenshot+2024-07-09+at+2.02.23%E2%80%AFPM.png Testimonials - Mick Pryor, Vice Chairman of the Riverton Airport Board and member of FAST, voices his support for the 1/2% sales tax and breaks down how the tax positively impacts Fremont County. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5efbc220289b88030fbedb61/9e40dc2a-2c10-468c-bb09-78f4621ac62f/miller-bulk-foods-1536x1019.jpeg Testimonials - Make it stand out 1/2% Tax Beacon of Success: Miller Bulk Foods in Riverton "A lot of what we got wouldn’t have been possible without the help from that.
