An anonymous donor has spearheaded an effort to provide students at Laura Ward STEM School, 646 N. Lawndale Ave., with necessary home and school supplies through a new “Forever Closet” at the school on Monday. The school’s leadership and staff, including Shontae Higginbottom, Network 5 Chief of Schools and Principal Shenann Finley-Jones, Laura Ward STEM School, have transformed a supply closet that will serve as a resource for essential items such as hygiene supplies, uniforms, folders, papers, pens and more that are needed both during and outside of the school day.  All Ward students also received book bags as the school team cuts a ceremonial ribbon to launch the Forever Closet.
