This award is just a small token of our appreciation.” As a direct result of Harris Teeter’s support of Chamber initiatives, 25 teachers have implemented creative technology-focused projects in their classrooms through the Chamber’s Grants for Great Ideas program and 17 teachers will implement grants during the coming school year.
