Prize Stampede

The entire Board of Directors, some of the band members, the mascot and even a camera man from local news media, loaded onto a school bus to reward teachers for all their efforts for innovative teaching. The band alerted each campus as we arrived that something very special was about to happen. With dozens of  balloons, giant checks and  plenty of cheering, the foundation, with the help of the entire community, was able to make our school district just a little better.

Community Partners

 Of the grants funded, more than half had identified funding partners listed on the application. Meaning that those grant writers had secured outside funding to meet part of the amount needed. 
Partners are vital to the success of the foundation. They make the gifts go further and let the community and the teachers know what an impact they have on the community at large. They truly make all the difference.

Students

An estimated total of 1,673 students were affected by the grants funded. That's a 30% increase over last year! Learning first hand fundamental skills, utilizing emerging technology, and creating experiences for students to enhance life-long learning, without a doubt further enhance educational opportunities in Shallowater ISD 

Teachers and Staff

Total awards received directly affected 87 teachers, paraprofessionals and administrators as grant writers. That's 30 more teachers and hundreds more students effected by the generous donations of those in our community!
