Casey's General Store awarded four grants in Arkansas this year as part of the Cash for Classrooms grant program, and one of the recipients was Bonnie Grimes Elementary School in Rogers. 

• For the kids: Overall, Casey's gave $1 million to 16 different states this year. Bonnie Grimes received $50,000 for a new inclusive playground so kids with disabilities can play and enjoy recess with their non-disabled friends. The other Arkansas grant recipients were a school band in Centerton, the Prairie Grove school district, and Howard Elementary in Fort Smith. 
• Funding community: The Cash for Classrooms program is focused on giving back to communities and supports schools and nonprofit organizations supporting education. Grants range from $3,000 to $50,000 and fund everything from playgrounds to teacher development, new school tech, field trips, and more.
