Partners in Education
What is a "Partner in Education"?
A "Partner in Education" is any community entity or individual committed to supporting our schools beyond traditional funding. These partnerships are customized to leverage the unique strengths and resources of each partner to meet specific school needs. Whether it's through volunteerism, mentorship, in-kind donations, financial contributions, or sharing expertise, every partnership makes a tangible difference.
