Saint Jo ISD Education Foundation
The purpose of the Saint Jo ISD Education Foundation is to annually provide senior scholarships for Saint Jo ISD graduates attending colleges, universities, and vocational schools. Additionally, tuition assistance is provided for dual credit courses along with instructional grants for teachers.
Our SJISD Foundation has awarded $30,500 in Student Dual Credit Tuition Assistance, $35,900 in Student Graduate Scholarships and $31,800 in Teacher Instructional Grants, and funded a $10,000 outdoor classroom, assisted in the school receiving a $10,000 grant for a mobile science lab and $65,000 in Agricultural Science Instructional Supply Grants since it was formed in the summer of 2015 as a non-profit corporation with IRS tax-exempt 501c3 status.
The generous donations of individuals, families, community members, alumni, and businesses along with the SJISD Education Foundation directors have helped deserving young people expand their educational opportunities and, in turn, their life opportunities.
