Jeananne Soukup from Anne Sullivan Elementary will receive $1,760 for her proposal, “Cornhole for Kids.”

With the funds, she will purchase eight sets of cornhole boards and beanbags that will be used by more than 500 K-5 students in PE. In the application, she wrote, “Cornhole for Kids would be so much more than just a game or fun activity. Students would be working on a variety of skills, including underhand tossing towards a target. This activity will also help them develop social skills, such as working with a partner, taking turns, problem solving, teamwork, and sharing strategies. Standard 4 states, ‘The physically literate individual exhibits responsible personal, social, and emotional behavior that respects self, others, and environment.’ This game would give students ample opportunities to show their ability to demonstrate these behaviors. My hope is that this memory of elementary school will be a lasting one!”
