The Scott County Regional Authority (SCRA) has awarded Bettendorf Schools $46,500 for two grants.

Herbert Hoover Inclusive Learning Playground – $42,500. The funds will be used to supplement the renovation of the Herbert Hoover Elementary playground with inclusive play space and additional accessible opportunities. Funds will help cover the installation of a new outdoor learning structure.

Safe Bus Stops for Bettendorf Students – $4,000. The grant will fund stop-arm cameras for Bettendorf school buses. The cameras will be mounted on the bus below the stop arm and are activated when the stop arm is activated. These cameras will provide better documentation/evidence of drivers who run stop arms so they can be issued tickets.
