Mrs. Kohl Grant

Arvest Bank awarded a $500 grant to Reeds Spring Elementary School teacher Mrs. Ashley Kohl. The grant is part of Arvest’s “We Love Teachers” initiative. The money can be used for classroom needs.

“She really stepped up as a team leader last year and is going above and beyond to help the new fourth grade teachers this year!” said principal Laura Weber.

The “We Love Teachers” program will provide 145 $500 gifts to individual teachers who work at public state-funded schools throughout Arvest’s four-state footprint. Recipients are selected by partnering schools’ administrations based on classroom needs.

In the six-year history of the “We Love Teachers” initiative, Arvest has awarded more than $320,000 to more than 640 teachers.
