Building, creating and sharing ideas can help children discover just how much they are capable of. Two mini grant projects at Hollibrook Elementary will support opportunities for students to explore their creativity and grow in confidence.
Congratulations to Hollibrook’s recipients of 2026 J. Landon Short Mini Grants for Educators!
Grant recipients | Project |
|---|---|
Roseleen Loera | Morphology |
AnneMarie Bullock and Bernalda Guevara | STEM Bins: Building Future Innovators |
Valentina Rombado and Caroline Torres | Amplifying Student Voice: Building Oral Language Through Digital Storytelling and Student Portfolios |
STEM Bins: Building Future Innovators will encourage students to explore science, technology, engineering and mathematics through hands-on learning. Building and testing ideas gives children opportunities to solve problems, work together and try new approaches.
Amplifying Student Voice: Building Oral Language Through Digital Storytelling and Student Portfolios will support students in developing their speaking skills and sharing their learning. Through storytelling and portfolios, students can express their ideas, reflect on their progress and build confidence in their own voices.
Together, these projects give Hollibrook students more ways to participate, create and share what they know. They also show how community support helps educators bring new learning opportunities to their classrooms.
Help bring more possibilities to SBISD classrooms.
