Homecroft Kindergarten Academy teacher Susan Thomas has been chosen as a finalist for a $100,000 grant from the Dream Big Teacher Challenge, sponsored by Farmers Insurance’s Thank America’s Teachers initiative.  If she wins, Homecroft will split the grant evenly between all four of our new kindergarten academies!

Ms. Thomas is one of only 15 finalists nationwide and the ONLY teacher in Indiana who is in the running for the grant. A video crew filmed Ms. Thomas and her class for a video that will eventually be available online and open for a public vote starting September 29.

We’ll provide more information about voting when details become available.
