Independent of school administrators, the foundation exists for the benefit of the school system by providing scholarships, special grants, supplements, and other specific programs and projects as agreed upon with the administration. The foundation supports the jefferson school system efforts to graduate fully functioning adults.”

“Grants & scholarships the foundation distributes funds to the schools in our system. The amount distributed is based on the number of students in attendance at each school. The principal of each school is to use the money for an activity or recognition program that is not funded through regular school money. A variety of scholarships are administered to students in recognition of their achievements and academic excellence. Recipients are selected by a committee of high school guidance counselors and school administrators. Examples of scholarship criteria include gpa, sat/act score, leadership, extracurricular activities, perfect attendance, and other achievements.”
