William Henry Burkhart Elementary is one of three finalists and could win $50,000 in the T4 World's Best School Prize for Community Collaboration.
INDIANAPOLIS — A Perry Township school is a top three finalist for a global award for its efforts embracing a growing population of Burmese students.
Burkhart Elementary Principal Darlene Hardesty said teachers and administrators have spent about two decades building relationship with churches and community organizations to provide food, clothing and whatever else these families need to adapt to life in Indiana, Principal Darlene Hardesty said.
