The Mohonasen Foundation for Excellence enhances educational opportunities for all Mohonasen students by generating and providing resources for innovative curriculum, enhancing staff development, and promoting partnerships between our schools and our community.

Through grants to teachers, the Foundation funds projects that encourage original approaches and inventive means for attaining educational excellence. Since its founding in 1997, the Foundation has awarded grants totaling over $32,000 for projects in the areas of science, technology, health, language arts, social studies and career education. These projects enrich and broaden educational opportunities for students at Bradt Primary School, Pinewood Intermediate School, Draper Middle School and Mohonasen High School.

Foundation directors work to make the Mohonasen community aware of the statewide push to raise academic achievement and prepare all students for the demands of the 21st Century workplace. The Foundation serves as a vehicle through which individuals, businesses and organizations can support that cause by sharing resources and gifts that go directly to advancing curriculum initiatives.

Recognizing the value of maintaining a tie with our graduates, the Foundation works to develop alumni relationships. In 2003 the Foundation published an alumni directory that contains a history of the district going back to 1821 and lists graduates of Mohonasen and Draper from 1960 through 2001.

The Mohonasen Foundation for Excellence is a not-for-profit organization whose mission is to promote excellence in the Mohonasen Schools. It operates independently of the school district, both financially and administratively. Volunteers who serve on the Foundation board take pride in working on projects that benefit our students, our schools and our community.
