Denton ISD teachers get surprise donation
Frank Borman Elementary School received $12,500 and supplies for students in need.
DENTON, Texas - With schools opening their doors for another year in North Texas, some local teachers were surprised with money for school supplies for students whose families can't afford them.
$12,500 was donated to teachers at Frank Borman Elementary School from community partner Subaru of Corinth.
The donation works out to $250 per classroom teacher.
They were also given a box with supplies and other classroom items.
"I know it's going to be able to take a burden off of families," said teacher Esteffanee Guajardo. "I'm going to be able to put it back into the classroom to help my students."
"I was shocked. I was surprised, I was excited. I had so many different emotions. It’s a blessing," said 5th grade teacher Jazzmine Mendez. "We’re a title one school so we’re always in need of help so I’m just so grateful because I’ll be able to use the supplies, the money for my students."
