Governance

This organization files the short tax form, which does not ask about boards, policies or audits. That is normal for a small charity and is not a mark against it.

Impact evidence

Describes programs. Its tax return describes what it does but we have found no measurable results in it.

Programs described in its return (3)
  1. $68,845 spent. THE FOUNDATION FUNDED TWO EDUCATIONAL AIDE POSITIONS FOR AN ADDITIONAL TWO-YEAR PERIOD AT CORINTH ELEMENTARY SCHOOL. THESE AIDES PROVIDE DIRECT CLASSROOM AND STUDENT SUPPORT, INCLUDING SMALL-GROUP INSTRUCTION, INDIVIDUALIZED ASSISTANCE, AND SUPPORT FOR ENRICHMENT ACTIVITIES. THIS FUNDING ENSURES CONTINUITY OF CRITICAL INSTRUCTIONAL SUPPORT THAT ENHANCES LEARNING OUTCOMES AND SUPPLEMENTS DISTRICT RESOURCES.
  2. $90,000 spent. THE FOUNDATION CONTINUED TO FUND THE DEVELOPMENT AND EXPANSION OF THE OUTDOOR LEARNING SPACE AT CORINTH ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, PROVIDING AN INTERACTIVE EDUCATIONAL ENVIRONMENT THAT SUPPORTS SCIENCE, ENVIRONMENTAL LEARNING, AND INTERDISCIPLINARY INSTRUCTION. FUNDING WAS USED FOR ENHANCEMENTS, INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIALS, AND ONGOING IMPROVEMENTS TO ENSURE THE SPACE IS ACCESSIBLE AND EFFECTIVE FOR STUDENT USE. THE OUTDOOR LEARNING SPACE FACILITATES HANDS-ON, EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES, PROMOTES STUDENT ENGAGEMENT, AND SUPPORTS DIVERSE TEACHING METHODS, INCLUDING SMALL-GROUP AND PROJECT-BASED INSTRUCTION. THIS ONGOING INVESTMENT STRENGTHENS THE SCHOOL'S ABILITY TO DELIVER ENRICHED EDUCATIONAL EXPERIENCES BEYOND THOSE SUPPORTED BY DISTRICT FUNDING.
  3. $21,930 spent. FUNDED THE PURCHASE OF EDUCATIONAL EQUIPMENT FOR CORINTH ELEMENTARY SCHOOL TO SUPPORT CLASSROOM INSTRUCTION, ENHANCE LEARNING EXPERIENCES, AND SUPPLEMENT DISTRICT-PROVIDED RESOURCES.
