The San Juan Island Public Schools Foundation would like to Thank You! – Tim Dustrude photo
The Phone-a-Thon, held on October 7th and 8th, brought in $42,000 in pledges. As they say, “It takes a village”. Thank you to this amazing community!
Volunteer students, parents, and educators spent hours at our call center this year. A big thanks to them as well.
The generous support of islanders has enabled the organization to continue supporting education on San Juan Island in numerous ways. With these funds, the Public Schools Foundation will help keep our local elementary, middle and high schools in the upper echelon of the state. Some examples of recent Public Schools Foundation grants include support for math, ROV, STEM, social studies and art programs.
100% of donations go back to the classroom!! Donations can still be made and more information can be found at our secure website.
