THE FOUNDATION | February 2019
PUTTing Smiles on Student Faces
On March 25th our Golf FORE Education Tournament
will celebrate 25 years of supporting education!  This nearly sold out tournament will be a day full of fun featuring delicious food, drinks and prizes.

Thanks to the support of amazing sponsors like Insurance Office of America, the event is set to be a success benefiting the students and teachers of Seminole County Public Schools.

We're still looking for donations for our silent auction and chance drawings such as dining gift cards, unique experiences, retail gift cards, golf equipment, weekend getaways, wine, liquor, and gift baskets.  Donate today!

From playing, sponsoring, and donating player gifts, there are many ways to support education and make a difference.

Have You Heard?
The Foundation recognized donors as they became students for a day at our Donor Appreciation breakfast. Attendees were able to get a glimpse into the opportunities offered to high school students in Seminole County Public Schools . Thanks to the support of our community, the limits to preparing students for the future are endless. Thank you to all who attended and to everyone who works with us to enhance education in our schools!
Thanks to a statewide investment by  AT&T  through the  Consortium of Florida Education Foundations , students at  Midway Elementary  will increase their understanding of how classroom curriculum translates into STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) careers.
Thank you AT&T!
