About Us
Partners in Education—a 501(c)3 organization— was created in 1989 by a group of parents who believed that quality of life is directly linked to the quality of education provided. Their first funding priority was the Grants to Schools Program. Through this program, students experience innovative ventures outside the core curriculum which otherwise could not be funded.
The Grants to Schools Program remains PIE’s largest funding priority. Annually, 50 to 60 teachers receive grants, and hundreds of students benefit through the resulting purchase of materials for curriculum enhancement. Scholarships to graduates and grants and awards to other students have increased the Foundation’s reach to include all levels of funding for USD 490 students.
Dollars for PIE grants, scholarships, and awards are generated by earnings from endowed funds, by donations from individuals, corporations, and foundations, and by fundraising events. Since 1989, PIE donors have made an impact of more than $3.8 million in contributions. Memorials have been established to honor former teachers and loved ones.
