On March 5, 2016, The Foundation to Inspire Excellence in Nyack Schools, Inc. held its annual Casino Night at the Nyack Seaport for Cultural Events in Nyack, New York. Over 200 people attended this year’s event. The community support was overwhelming and the evening raised $33,000 to fund STEM related educational programs within the Nyack schools. A special focus this year and next will be to raise enough money to equip a Mac computer lab at the Nyack Middle School, in addition to the many other initiatives that Inspire Nyack contributes to throughout the year; Robotics, Science Assemblies, Science Fairs, Pi Day at Nyack High School, teacher dream grants & more.
