The Plant High School Academic Foundation relies heavily on business partnerships. Last year over one-third of our financial support came from business partnerships. The purpose of the Plant High School Academic Foundation is to raise funds that can be used to make enhancements to the academics at PHS by providing resources for needs that are not met by state or local funding.
During the 2020-2021 school year, business partnerships became even more critical to the Academic Foundation when schools encountered an unexpected increase in expenses due to Covid-19. The Academic Foundation was able to provide $61,000 in grants to teachers at PHS. These Grants helped ensure teachers and staff were able to continue to educate students safely and effectively during a very challenging school year.
The PHS Academic Foundation is thankful for all of our business partners. Current business partners are listed below. If you have a chance to thank them in person or utilize their services, we encourage that you support them as they chose to support PHS.
The Academic Foundation provides different levels of partnerships, which all include recognition on-campus and online! Business partnerships are not only a great way to show support for public school in your community, they are also an excellent marketing opportunity.
Please review the partnership levels below and make a commitment to today!
Online payment and submission is preferred. If you would prefer to pay via check or any questions concerning business partnerships, please contact Mary Margaret Braddock, VP Business Partnerships PHS Academic Foundation at; [email protected].
Partnerships that are eligible to be included in the fall football program must be submitted by August 13th!
All partnerships are recognized for a full year.
