Taylor’s Crossing receives cash award from Idaho Lottery

IDAHO FALLS, Idaho (KIFI) - A Bonneville County charter school got a big payoff Tuesday from the Idaho Lottery.

Taylor's Crossing Charter School was a recipient of $3,000 from the Idaho Lottery's 'Bucks for Books' program.

This is the first time Taylor's Crossing has received this large amount of cash from the lottery

"We have actually participated in scratch for schools every year and we get a little bit of money," Assistant Principal Teresa Kolsen said. "We haven't gotten three thousands dollars. This was a bigger amount of money that we can use in our library."

The 'Bucks for Books' program was created in 2019 by the Idaho Lottery to benefit public schools.
