ASU's Ted McNeal accepts plaque

ASU volunteers recognized

Students and teachers from Lamar Elementary School presented a plaque May 7 to volunteers from Augusta State University.

The plaque was presented at the elementary school's annual awards ceremony. It recognized the dedication and support that the Public Safety Department provided the school through volunteer programs like reading to kindergarten students helping with field day, the Parent-Teacher Association, and after school activities. The department also donated basketball goals and a swing set to the school.

“We spend an average of three hours per week at the school,” said Jasper Cooke, director of public safety. “We try to provide positive role modeling for the children at Lamar Elementary School.”

Lamar is one of ASU’s three adopted schools. Other adopted schools include Tubman Middle School and Laney High School.
