A Newburgh school could get $100,000 if they get enough votes.

Newburgh Free Academy's P-Tech school is in the running for a Farmers Insurance Thank America's Teachers grant. The program supports proposal and projects that make a difference in the community.  

The school's Global Service Learning Program gives students the opportunity to travel to another country and volunteer, then use what they've learned to do a community impact project.

P-Tech teachers Jacqueline Hesse and Christine McCartney, along with the students, decided to apply for the grant to help fund something that would go toward a larger purpose of helping people in the city of Newburgh.

For their impact project, the group wants to build a memorial that commemorates the history of Newburgh, and celebrates its people. This grant would fund the construction, and the group thinks it would be a big benefit to the community.

Those who want to vote for this project can vote once per day until the contest closes.
