Pasco Ed. Foundation April 2023

Welcome to our new look! We wanted to join Pasco County Schools communications with a cohesive way to communicate with the district and our partners. Popular with educators, this format allows for accessibility functions (see sidebar at the top of the page), translations, and clickable links for those on the district network. Thank you for adapting with us!

In February, the district-wide employees of the year were celebrated. Congratulations to:

• Kim Theurer, Gulf High School, Teacher of the Year (pictured)
  
• Iravonia Abiola, Multi-Tiered System of Support Specialist, Administrator of the Year
• Cheryl Macri-Grim, Gulf High School, Assistant Principal of the Year
• David Salerno, Charles S. Rushe Middle School, Principal of the Year
• Kimberlie Glogowski, Non-Instructional Leave Specialist, Non-Instructional Non-Bargaining Employee of the Year
• Anita Dienes, Instructional Assistant at Thomas E. Weightman Middle School, School-Related Personnel of the Year

Last month the Foundation staff traveled to Tallahassee to take part in professional development, business meetings, and networking. We enjoyed our time collaborating with our peers and fellow members of the Consortium of Florida Education Foundations, but most importantly we were able to meet with our Pasco County Legislative Delegation to share what their support means to all of us.

Thank you State Senator Danny Burgess, State Representative Randy Maggard, and State Representative Kevin Steele! You innovate learning and power the potential of teachers and students thanks to your support of the School District Education Foundation Matching Grant Program.

On April 1, we held our annual gala raising funds for our programs directly supporting classrooms and educators in our district. Thank you to all that attended and we hope you had a great time!
