Cape Girardeau Public Schools is proud to announce two members of our Tiger Family have been named Difference Makers by B Magazine.
CHS freshman Grant Skelton and Blanchard Elementary principal Dr. Barbara Kohlfeld were honored at an awards ceremony held on the Southeast Missouri State University River Campus.
Grant is being honored for his work with the Granting Grace Foundation, a nonprofit organization he developed on his own. The organization focuses on providing support to individuals in need in southeast Missouri. Over the last seven years, Grant has raised more than $80,000 through his foundation, positively impacting the lives of people in our community.
Dr. Kohlfeld, a career-long educator, has been inspiring young minds for more than four decades. She has served as principal of Blanchard Elementary since 2000, was the principal of May Greene and was the Gifted Education facilitator for Cape Girardeau Public Schools. She is known for her unwavering leadership. She has a way of demanding excellence from students and staff alike.
Thank you to both of these Tigers for serving as an example to all of us.
Congratulations! We are so proud of you!
