$75,523.44 awarded to WISD!

The Waco ISD Education Foundation's "Prize Patrol" has once again produced hundreds of smiles throughout the district by awarding more than $75-thousand in grants. With twice as many outstanding proposals as last year, the decisions were tough. 25 grants were awarded to 19 campuses. The Foundation is pleased to have so many fantastic teachers in Waco ISD with creative ideas about how to do more in the classroom. Through their motivation and the Foundation's funding, we are truly Raising the Power of Education in Waco!
