“The kalispell education foundation aims to enrich and support kalispell public schools.”

“The organization's grants program was developed to enrich education in the kalispell public schools system. It is designed to put money directly into the hands of classroom teachers, helping educators take ideas for innovative teaching strategies and make them a reality. We supported 4,430 students through 56 classroom grants, an increase of 13%. This program is designed to put money directly into the hands of classroom teachers, helping educators take ideas for innovative teaching strategies and make them a reality. We expanded our after school tutoring program to both of our large high schools. It provides 3 staff members to be available for tutoring after school three days a week during the school year at each school . The primary areas of support are science, math, and special education. This program serves between 5-10 students per day throughout the school year. Three staff members were honored through our educator of the year award program, which gives community members, parents, and students the opportunity to nominate their favorite teacher to win 1,000 for their classroom and 250 in gift certificates. We received 815 submissions and three teachers were awarded the prize high school, middle school, and elementary school. We also shared the submissions with the nominated staff as a part of teacher appreciation. The foundation supports over 800 staff members through our teacher appreciation program. Board members deliver snacks and messages of appreciation throughout the year.”
