NCFL Law Firm Supports ACPS With Thousands of Dollars – WCJB Channel 20
GAINESVILLE, Fla. (WCJB) – Fine, Farkash & Parlapiano will distribute $70,000 dollars to Alachua County Public Schools. It is a part of their recently launched Hall Pass Initiative.
Money will go towards elementary, middle, and high schools, as well as non-profits and summer 2023 programs. They will fund a number of Amazon wish lists for teachers and give a “Principal’s choice” allocation.
“Allows me the flexibility to use it for student incentives for staff incentives,” said Tim Wright, principal of Santa Fe High School. “Sometimes our county funds, because of the way the funding comes about, we are not able to have as much freedom. So having that principles discretion really allows me to look at Santa Fe high school and figure out how can I help my students the most and how can I help my faculty”
