Jerry Vitalis, Duane Olson, and Wayne Redland, members of the Taylors Falls School Foundation, are shown presenting Joe Thimm, Principal of Taylors Falls Elementary School, with a check for $2,500. The money will be used to purchase an Interactive Polycom View Station. This system allows a classroom teacher to access programs from the Minnesota History Center in which students can experience living history through the video screen. There are a number of these programs covering different relevant topics. The foundation has given over $5,000 to Taylors Falls School since June of 2009.
