The Safeway Foundation has awarded the Bullhead City School District a $12,000 grant for the district’s six schools. The grant is part of Safeway’s celebration of the remodeling and ribbon cutting of its Bullhead City supermarket.

Each school will receive $2,000 for specific campus needs, including materials for BCSD’s new model of a more rigorous instruction, professional development for a new supplemental program, awards, and other items to enhance students’ learning in grades pre-kindergarten through eight.

Safeway’s foundation also awarded a $3,000 grant to the Mohave High School Thunder Band and $5,000 to the Bullhead Regional Food Bank.

“The Bullhead City School District and Safeway have had many formal and informal partnerships over the decades that we have served our community together,” said BCSD Superintendent Carolyn Stewart. “These $2,000 grants for each of our six schools have one goal in mind: to help our students. For that, we’re deeply grateful to the Safeway Foundation.”

The Bullhead City area has had Safeways for years. Its original store opened more than 55 years ago, two blocks south of the current location.

BCSD schools receiving the Safeway Foundation grants are Bullhead City Middle School, Coyote Canyon School, Desert Valley School, Diamondback Elementary School, Fox Creek Junior High School, and Sunrise Elementary School. The Bullhead City School District first opened in a one-room schoolhouse more than 75 years ago, starting 35 years before Bullhead City was incorporated.
