Chelsea Mayor Tony Picklesimer made a visit to Chelsea's five schools this week to present checks to their principals.
"We are so thankful for what all our teachers, administrators and staff do for our children here in Chelsea," said Picklesimer. "It’s great to be able to partner with them in this way."
The donation of $20,000 is the first of two that the schools will receive this year. The second donation, in the amount of $5,000, will be distributed in May.
Each school determines how to use the funds. This is separate from the city's Nick Grant program that many teachers have taken advantage of.
