Did you move here because of the incredible reputation of the school district? If you are, you are one of many who sought out living in Van Alstyne because of the wonderful school district. One aspect that makes VAISD so special is the Van Alstyne Education Foundation. It is an organization that is most well-known for senior scholarships and teacher grants, awarding nearly $700,000 since its creation in 2012 including over half a million endowment.
Annual community fundraising events include the Sporting Clay Shoot, the Little Big Town 5k and Family Fun Run, and their Gala coming up on February 22nd. However you do not have to wait for one of these events. To contribute to this remarkable foundation now, you can donate any amount here.
An interesting fact that was shared with my by VAEF board members is many of the donors on the teachers themselves.
