The record turnout of some 100 Morgan Hill Unified School District teachers were on hand on September 25 th , at P . A . Walsh Elementary School for the Annual Fall Teachers Classroom Supply Giveaway . The event helps teachers with needed classroom supplies that they would otherwise need to purchase with their own funds . The Teacher ’ s Aid Coalition ( TAC ) is a non-profit organization affiliated with the Morgan Hill Community Foundation that was organized in 1999 by founder , Jon Hatakeyama to provide classroom supplies for Morgan Hill ’ s public educators .
Funds for these efforts are raised through the TAC ’ s popular annual “ Chocolate & Wine For Valentines ” slated for February 7 , 2015 at the Morgan Hill Community & Cultural Center . This event has the support of the Morgan Hill Rotary Club . Anyone who wishes to support our local public school teachers , please attend this fun event .
