\nTYLER — As the award-winning Tyler ISD Foundation moves into its 20th anniversary year, there’s a lot to look back on — but it’s really all about preparing kids for the future. On KTBB “Staff Meeting,” Executive Director Larry Goddard points to the foundation’s grants to teachers for innovative projects — and the impact those can have on students. “The students don’t know what careers are out there,” says Goddard. “We have health occupation grants that we’ve given, and it just opened a wide world of activity for those students.” And Goddard says that’s just one example. He adds that the classroom project grants can have a critical impact on kids’ lives — starting in kindergarten. Goddard says the teachers are thinking, “What will these students need to know in the year 2023 (when they’re on track to graduate from high school)?”<\/p>\n

The foundation funds projects not typically covered by tax dollars. The fall fundraising campaign begins in October. You can go to http:\/\/www.tylerisd.org\/tisdfoundation<\/a> to learn more.
