Business Partners
Partners In Education (PIE)
Recognizing that a strong public school system is essential to the prosperity of our community, many business and civic organizations take an active role in schools. The Partners in Education program encourages this involvement by developing partnerships that enhance the education of our students. During the 2022-2023 school year, 313 businesses, organizations, and colleges partnered with one or more school. Partnership activities include:
- provide incentives and awards;
- financial contributions;
- in-kind service to volunteer, mentor, tutor or serve on councils/advisories;
- donation of equipment;
- adoption of a particular school or event;
- release time for employees to volunteer in schools;
- school sponsorship of programs, seminars and workshops;
