CURRENT PROGRAMS
The Golden Apple Gala
This event honors and recognizes more than 80 local public-school teachers who have been awarded the Teacher of the Year Award within their school. Superintendents, school board members, government officials, parents of students and many more attend this event. The evening also includes student musical performances and a student art showcase.
Patrons and Players
The Schools Foundation recently added a new program called Patrons & Players. This program supports the funding of extra-curricular activities such as sports and fine arts for students with financial challenges in Huntsville City, Madison City and Madison County schools. We believe that no student should be left on the sideline based on financial need. Extracurricular activities are sometimes the one thing that will keep a child focused on their education.
Raise Your Hand (RYH)
A National Board Certified Teacher is the greatest gift we can give to a student, to a classroom, to our community. Raise Your Hand is a bold initiative to add 500 new National Board Certified Teachers (NBCTs) to Huntsville City, Madison City and Madison County school systems.. National Board Certification is the most respected professional certification available in K-12 education.
