East Central University鈥檚 chapter of the Student Oklahoma Education Association (SOEA) helped provide Christmas gifts for students at Ada High School.
鈥淢any people take the time to help with 鈥楢ngel Tree鈥 gifts for elementary students, but they often forget that our older students like to be remembered at Christmas as well,鈥 said Paula Keady, executive director of academics and instruction for Ada City Schools.
Members of 成人B站鈥檚 SOEA chapter, along with faculty and staff members of the Education/Athletic Departments not only collected t-shirts and clothing for the students, they also planned fundraisers and donated money so the Ada High counselors would be able to purchase gifts for the students.
Matt McGaha, instructor of kinesiology and education at 成人B站, along with Dr. Nanette Schmitt, assistant professor of education at 成人B站, were instrumental in developing a partnership with the Ada City Schools that has allowed the building of programs to benefit the community, according to Keady.
鈥淚t should be noted that SOEA Officers Leena Vupulla, Diego Cifuentes and Kristina Mayfield also worked diligently on behalf of the students of Ada High School,鈥 Keady said. 鈥淚t is gratifying to think that they are future students.鈥
