| The HEB Education Foundation will host its annual Innovative Teaching Grants reception, 5pm, at the Pat May Center, located across from Pennington Field. The Foundation awards $25,000 in grants each January to teachers who apply in the fall. Teachers use the grants to purchase materials for special lessons or programs that are not available in the school's budget. Twenty projects will receive grant funding at this year's reception.
The HEB ISD Education Foundation was established in 1995 as a non-profit organization designed to support the school district. The foundation has four goals: encouraging all students to work to their highest potential; rewarding teachers for innovative efforts and exemplary teaching; building public awareness and confidence in our schools; involving the community in assuring a quality education for the leaders and workers of tomorrow. |
