Want To Mentor A Deserving Student?
Do you have 30 minutes a week to change a life? Are you interested in mentoring one of our Take Stock in Children Seminole Scholars?
This program offers deserving, low-income students a chance to escape the cycle of poverty through education. We offer our students college scholarships, caring volunteer mentors and hope for a better life. Weekly meetings with mentors, skill-building workshops and the support of a College Success Coach keep these students on track for high school and college success.

The program is always looking for mentors! If you would like to learn more, you can email Shannon Rininger at riningsj@scps.k12.fl.us.

Have You Heard?
Thank you Lockheed Martin for the $15,000 grant! Funds will support further development of the Environmental Wastewater Program at Lake Brantley High School by allowing the purchase of materials, supplies, and funds for travel costs.

Programs like this help our students explore the various career paths that are out there!
Is your kid covered this holiday season? The Foundation has a partnership with Florida KidCare to ensure that all SCPS students have access to affordable, low-cost and quality health and dental plans for children from birth through age 18.
