Nationally ranked Plant High School’s success provides confidence and comfort to companies looking to relocate their businesses and families to our thriving South Tampa community. PHS Academic Foundation along with their Business Partners are a critical part of this success!
Businesses who choose to support PHS by partnering with its Academic Foundation will see increased traffic flow. Plant High School is a cornerstone within our South Tampa community and contributing to its continued success benefits everyone.
Our Business Partners account for over one-third of the dollars received by the Academic Foundation. Last year, through over $50,000 in teacher grants, the Academic Foundation provided educational enhancements in all subject areas, including improved technology, new books, PE equipment, musical instruments and supplies, additional student resources, and valuable teacher training.
As a PHS Academic Foundation Business Partner, you and your business will have the opportunity to receive recognition at our monthly membership meetings and school events, on-site presence at school events (depending on partnership level), and more. Most importantly, your business partnership continues to advance Plant High School, the cornerstone of South Tampa's public education.
