During the last week of school, five Iowa-Grant 5th-grade students were acknowledged for their excellence in the classroom. Andre C., Tenley H., Kelsey B., Bronx R., and Rachel W. were awarded the Summers Award for being in the top 10% of their class. Great Job! Keep up the great work. To learn more about the history of the Elizabeth Summers bequest, continue reading below. Elizabeth Summers (1918 – 2008) was born in Fennimore, Wisconsin to a farming family. Her parents, John & Rose Kalile, had emigrated from the country of Lebanon. Elizabeth met her husband, Norbert Summers, in La Crosse. She worked as a secretary & receptionist at a business in La Crosse for 34 years. Her older twin sisters Josephine and Genevieve Kalile attended the Platteville Normal School and were rural school teachers in the Iowa & Grant counties. Since neither Josephine nor Genevieve had married, they left their inheritance to Elizabeth. When Elizabeth died, her Trust (est. 2010) made gifts totaling over $1.1 million. In addition to the Iowa-Grant bequest, the Summers trust made gifts to several other public schools plus, among others, the Boscobel Health Care Foundation, Fennimore Community Scholarship Foundation, Great Rivers United Way, UW-Platteville Foundation, and Caritas Lebanon Catholic Charity. This bequest continues to fund the Iowa-Grant top 10% of the fifth-grade class for their achievements for now & years to come.
