Califon Public School's WinterFall Grant!
We are extremely thankful for the generosity of Gloria Winter.
Mrs. Winter was a long time resident of Califon whose children
attended school here. Mrs. Winter was a foreign language teacher at
Califon and a former Board of Education member. She has since
relocated outside of the area but still continues to support our
school through the WinterFall Grant with grant awards selected by
the WinterFall Grant Committee. For that, we are grateful!
