Foundation

There is a place in America to take a stand; it is public education.
It is the underpinning of our cultural and political system.
It is the great common ground.
Public education after all is the engine that moves us as a society toward a common destiny…
It is in public education that the American dream begins to take shape.

— Tom Brokaw

Donations


Every gift, no matter the size, makes a difference. Thanks to the generosity of donors, the Foundation has been able to support and encourage the energy and creativity of our teachers by funding extra programs and activities. Donations to support the unrestricted fund for annual grants are greatly appreciated. (see Your Dollars at Work)



Memorials


Making charitable contributions is a very creative procedure that adapts to the changing needs and desires of the donor. Planned giving allows a donor to arrange charitable contributions that will maximize their personal objectives. Please consider the Foundation when making Memorial Gifts.


We would like to thank all those who have remembered the Foundation with memorial gifts. Your donation, in memory of a loved one, has a lasting value and impact on all our students.
