EDUCATION LOOKS TO THE FUTURE
The West Jefferson Hills Foundation for Education has a long history of providing resources and opportunities to enhance student learning . The founding members created the Foundation back in 2001 , and it is with great pride that current Foundation board members are committed to renewing the Foundation ’ s efforts of supporting district students and staff .
The mission of the West Jefferson Hills Foundation for Education is to provide a supplemental funding source within the West Jefferson Hills School District to further enhance and enrich student educational opportunities . Although the District has a large operating budget , tax funds typically cover salary , building maintenance , basic curriculum and books . The Foundation ’ s goal is to provide funding for unique , engaging and real-world learning experiences for our students .
The Foundation has already issued several small grants to assist teachers with the ability to provide innovative learning experiences for students . Some of the creative projects include purchasing more inclusive reading materials and books for high school students to make reading relevant for all learners , purchasing materials for students to build a chicken coop to enrich the elementary life science lessons , and funding community-based field trips to entrepreneurial start-ups for our business students . All of these unique projects funded by the Foundation engage students to make learning fun and personalized to their interests and applicable to the real world .
A plan is in place to promote the Foundation to the WJHSD Alumni and community members in the next few months , and we need your help to build upon our efforts so we can continue to make more of these projects a reality . Please consider making a direct donation , purchasing a commemorative stadium brick , or supporting our future fundraising initiatives . Although there is much to accomplish in the months ahead , Foundation board members are excited about the future of the WJH Foundation for Education and look forward to your support !
