Since 1995, the Gresham-Barlow Education Foundation has given $35,607 to Dexter McCarty Middle School. The majority of funds received were for Innovation Grants that directly enhance classroom instruction. The Hornets also received significant funding for literacy support, including the recent creation of a web-enabled eLibrary.
