Our programs are designed to: give students the opportunity to achieve academic success throughout their k-12 School career; be prepared to lead productive lives and to enter either post-secondary education or career fields; and most importantly, so that all students will have hope for brighter futures!

Post-secondary academic scholarships: the Foundation annually awards scholarships to graduating esd seniors to pursue post-secondary vocational and college academic opportunities.

Nourishing network (nn) consists of several different programs all designed to help students and families who are either experiencing homelessness or are in emerging crisis to meet their basic needs. Nn provides: weekend meals, snacks, and beverages to nurish hungry and homeless children over the weekend; seasonal holiday and summer meals which bridge nutritional gaps over long School breaks; monthly pop-up pantries to help sustain children and their families who cannot access a traditional brick and mortar foodbank; and support to the esd's food services department. In addition, the nn also provides vision screening and eye hardware to children in need, and students receive School supplies through the back to School resource fair. Another program offered through the nn is the whole families, whole communities program. This program is a collective impact collaborative which provides wrap-around services, rent, and emergency services to families who are in crisis.
