Your contribution directly supports the children of Nettelhorst

Nettelhorst has evolved into a case study in how a public school can be reborn and revitalized. And much of that success has come from the contributions of people like you, who have helped Nettelhorst overcome funding shortages that are the reality in public schools today. Nettelhorst's children need your active participation to take best advantage of the school's momentum, as we continue to create an environment within which over 620 students -- kindergarten through eighth grade -- can realize their potential. Please select any of the efforts below to find out more about how you can make a critical difference: Inventing the World of Tomorrow help, we'll ensure that this space provides children of all ages with the tools and opportunity to become the inventors and problem-solvers of tomorrow. Take a look at the complete blueprints—donated, along with extensive consultation, by Kewaunee Scientific Corporation (lab designers for Abbott, Baxter, Northwestern University, and others)—here. The rebuild costs only $90,000, and will supercharge science education for thousands of children over the coming years! To assure a quality science education, the lab will also be outfitted with up-to-date equipment (at an additional cost of ~$45,000) to replace the current broken and outdated equipment.
