Annual Report
Investing in our Future
2013
We all want what’s best for our children. We work hard to provide motivation, inspiration and support in hopes of ensuring a rewarding life for them. Their young lives are so busy and complex that sometimes it’s easy to forget just how essential a great education is if they are to reach their full potential.
Without a sound education, it is virtually impossible to bring out the true greatness within. For the majority of students in New Albany and Floyd County, that means a sound education in our public schools. Businesses cannot function without an educated, skilled workforce. Communities cannot grow without capable and caring individuals who share their talents with one another. The NAFC Education Foundation exists to facilitate the development of such individuals. To provide our county’s children with early literacy development before they reach the doors of our schools. To show our students that learning happens everywhere, not only in the classroom. To engage our community so that it will help us meet our mission and strive for academic achievement for all. As a separate 501 c 3 non-profit organization, we work in concert
with the NAFC School Corporation to provide resources and experiences which help our educators do what they do best—impact young lives, and stimulate young minds! These are goals we have set to keep pace with our community’s growing education needs.
We believe in the promise of a great public education. We fear the consequences of its absence. Although the success of a student ultimately depends upon their own efforts it doesn’t happen without your support. We are so grateful for your help! We could not have come this far without the commitment of our many passionate partners. We would not dare to envision an even greater tomorrow for our students without the continued generosity of our supporters—many of whom are dedicated educators and staff members of our schools-pledging each year to create better opportunities for our children. Together, let us continue to help our students discover their talents and reach their goals. Then let us marvel as we watch them do wonderful things for our community.
DURING THE 2013-2014 SCHOOL YEAR, AMERICAN TEACHERS SPENT $1.6 BILLION OF THEIR OWN MONEY ON CLASSROOM SUPPLIES AND TEACHING MATERIALS. We know the exceptional educators in NAFC schools give all they can to make sure their students succeed. To help them along in their efforts, we are proud to offer the opportunity for any educator in the district to apply for up to $500 a year in Great Classroom Project funding. These projects are used to provide additional resources to creative teachers for learning opportunities that enhance the educational and curricular objectives of their classrooms.
Examples of past projects funded are: • YogamatsforyogainstructionandtraininginHealthandPE • Booksandaudiorecordingsforstudentswithspecialneeds • Frogsfordissectinginscienceclassrooms • PrintingPressforartrooms • CDbasedforeignlanguagelearningsystem •Waterbasketballgoalsforhealthandfitness training •Webbasedlearningplansforstudentswith disabilities • InteractivetechnologylikeiPadsand documentcameras •Musicbooks,musicstands,andinteractive SMARTBoardsoftwareformusicrooms
“These resources light a ‘spark’ within students. This spark instills a love of learning that is invaluable. As a Great Classrooms Projects recipient for the past three years, I’ve been given the chance to entice learning and capture the attention of every student in my classroom. To
hear my students make comments such as ‘I can’t wait to get to Reader’s Workshop today because it is our tables’ turn for the Smart Board stations,’ or ‘Miss Smith, if I write a whole
page in my draft book can I please practice my spelling words on the iPad?’ Now THAT is powerful. THAT is making a difference. THAT is instilling a love of learning.”
