Summary
The district foundation announced a transition in its liaison role and a new scholarship; a local Korner Sports golf outing contributed $53,000 for sports backers and representatives said the event has raised about $1.5 million over 32 years.
The board heard a foundation report on Sept. 15 that included leadership changes, scholarship awards and fundraising results. Todd Schutte, the district foundation liaison, will retire in December. Staff announced Talitha (assistant principal/dean at Southside) will assume liaison duties during the transition.
The foundation welcomed Zoe Bridges to its board and added a new scholarship from Judy Wolf worth $2,000; the report listed total scholarships of $4,500 (as summarized in the foundation notes).
