Tahlequah Public Schools Foundation

It was a good day welcoming our teachers back to school and congratulating our site Teachers of the Year. This year, we gave out $1,000 in Amazon gift cards and provided Vidalias Cafe & Catering to all our sites. Thank you Vidalias for always making it so easy on us.

We also want to say thank you to all our sponsors, our board members and students that helped everything run smoothly. Thank you to everyone who signed up for payroll deduction through the foundation and Lift Coffee Bar for the $5 gift card donations. We appreciate it greatly. These payroll donations go back to our teachers and schools through our yearly grants.

TPS Educators! We are currently accepting grant applications to help make your vision for the classroom a reality. Complete the form online and submit. Don't miss the deadline: November 2nd at midnight.

Some members of the Class of 1975 (Brenda Kirk, Kathy Tibbits, and Paula Winton) made this beautiful quilt as a fund raising effort during their 50th Class Reunion. Those that bought the quilt during the silent auction, donated it to TPSF to be displayed. Once a Tiger always a Tiger!

Thank you to Tahlequah Public Schools for hosting our monthly meeting at the new Education Services Center, along with providing a wonderful lunch. The space is amazing and is going to be such an asset to our schools and community.
