about the foundation
It comes as no surprise to educational supporters, such as yourself, that funding for education has been in turmoil for several years now. Increasingly, as the general economy becomes more and more strained, funding for education suffers. Although boards of education and educators in general are quite willing to "do their part" in responding to the tough economic times, often the end result has its greatest impact on our children and their learning opportunities. Effective learning environments are supplemented and enhanced by access to funds which are usually not included when minimal state and local funding formulas are addressed. For this reason, many school districts are setting up voluntary programs to enhance educational funding. Turner USD #202 has done this with the establishment of The Turner Foundation.
Community members interested in serving on the Board of Directors should contact Executive Director Vikki Mullins at mullinsv@turnerusd202.org.
