Making Great Ideas A Reality
Each year, Seminole County Public School teachers have the opportunity to make their dream projects a reality for their students through the Foundation’s Grants for Great Ideas (GFGI) program. Teachers are eligible to apply for up to $500 for an individual classroom project and up to $1,500 for a grade or school wide initiative in three categories: STEM, Literacy, or Arts. Since 1989, the Foundation has awarded over $1.7 million to support the great ideas of our teachers.

With almost $70,000 given out in grants, this school year has been no different! Over 60 dedicated teachers applied and received funding for their classroom projects.

Supporting Education for 25 Years!
The Foundation's Golf FORE Education Tournament celebrated 25 years of supporting education on Monday, March 25th with a successful, sold out tournament! It was a fantastic day full of fun for all!

Thank you to all our sponsors, participants, committee and volunteers for supporting this event that benefits numerous Foundation programs!
