Pictures above--Appreciation Breakfast
held on 11/20/09 for Transportation's participation in the 100% Awareness Campaign.
Many thanks to the Hallsville ISD staff for all of the support
that was given
to the Hallsville ISD Education Foundation during the 100% Awareness Campaign.
Over 650 employees pledged a total of $8,852.
Raising awareness was the goal of this campaign--100%
awareness
with everyone in the district knowing how the Foundation enhances the opportunities
we are able
to provide to our students, staff, and families.
The high level of success of the Foundation is due to the work of our
Foundation
Board of Directors, our supportive community, and our dedicated staff.
Thanks to their efforts, we
are better able to achieve our mission to provide students
with the knowledge, skills, and attitudes necessary to be
life-long learners. |

Registration and Sponsorship forms are available on the Golf Tournament link. High School students can take 36 college hours at the rate of $150 per course.
At Hallsville ISD,
we have several students that would like to participate in this program,
but can not due to financial hardships.
For this reason, the Hallsville ISD Education
Foundation will begin taking Dual Credit Course Scholarship applications
for the fall, 2010 semester.
One of the most valuable aspects of the program is that it enables students with
economic
hardships in grades 11 and 12 to apply and pursue their academic goals.
Students are monitored by Hallsville ISD staff
throughout the program to ensure
they follow the scholarship guidelines of staying in school, maintaining good grades,
and
remain drug and crime free. For more information, contact Debbie Cline (dcline@hisd.com) or
the Foundation Office bgodsey@hisd.com.
